Welcome to this week’s Social Eyes. Jordan Spieth has resurfaced for the first time since his Masters loss after playing some holes at Oakmont.
At the end of his nine-hole practice round on the 18th green, he just happened to hole this incredible flop shot…

Yeah, I don’t think he’s going to be too affected about what happened at the Masters.
Amid all the rain delays at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, Spieth’s #SB2K16 comrade Rickie Fowler posted this throwback pic to celebrate his little sister’s birthday.
Y.E. Yang famously took down Tiger Woods at the 2009 US PGA Championship in the first time the American had failed to convert a 54-hole in a major. He hasn’t won a major since – and someone has given the South Korean this nickname on Wikipedia…
Ever the joker, Henrik Stenson couldn’t resist this photobomb on Ian Poulter and his dad Terry. But will he get the chance to get his hands on the Ryder Cup later this year?
Two weeks ago it was Gareth Bale getting his picture taken with Sergio – this week it was Real Madrid legend Luis Figo. While Spain vs Portugal is usually a massive sporting rivalry, it looks pretty friendly here.

And finally…
Stewart Cink announced on Twitter on Tuesday night that he was taking an indefinite leave from golf after his wife Lisa had been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Naturally, the American received overwhelming support and well wishes – not least from the golfing world.
Please lift up @lisacink and @stewartcink in prayer. Cancer is evil, God is great. He can overcome. Lord, help my friends beat cancer. Amen.
