PALM CITY, Fla. — Brodie Van Wagenen is Yoenis Cespedes’s agent, and on Wednesday he offered him a friendly wager as they approached the tee box on the par-3 eighth hole. Closest to the pin would win $100.
Turning serious, Cespedes huddled with the caddie they were using and asked about the direction of the wind. He then took a moment and studied the shape of the green.
Van Wagenen went first and hit a shot that landed on the front right portion of the green. Then Cespedes pulled out a pitching wedge and placed his ball to the back left side.
