Adam Hadwin got tackled by the security personnel at the RBC Canadian Open who mistook Hadwin for a fan breaching security. It happened on Sunday when Nick Taylor created history at Oakdale Country Club.
Taylor made a 72-foot putt on the fourth playoff hole on Sunday to become the first Canadian in 69 years to win the RBC Canadian Open. It was a moment to celebrate for every Canadian, including Mike Weir, Corey Conners, and Hadwin, who watched the playoff nervously.
When Taylor made the winning putt, Hadwin grabbed a champagne bottle and popped it in celebration. This was when the security personnel sprinted toward him and tackled him with full force.

Taylor praised the tackle effort by the guard and hoped his friend didn't get injured.
"Corner of my eye I saw he got a nice tackle there," Taylor was quoted as saying via Fox Sports. "I hope he's all right. He was upright when I saw him later. So I hope he doesn't wake up tomorrow morning with any broken ribs or anything."
Hadwin's wife, Jessica, who is known for her humor, didn't waste time reacting and was, as usual, at her funniest best. She informed her fans that Adam was doing well, and as a true Canadian, he apologized to the security guard for getting tackled.
