When English pro Daniel Brown hit an errant shot during the final round of the DP World Tour’s Andalucia Masters on Sunday, he surely couldn’t have been expecting to find his ball settled in such an improbable place.

What exactly happened? There isn’t any footage of Brown’s ball in flight, but a chuckle-inducing video posted on X (formerly Twitter) shows what happened when Brown approached the area where his ball landed, and a drop situation that left the broadcasters somewhat lost for words.

You have to see it to believe it, but Brown’s ball somehow ended up lodged between a fan’s backside and her chair on the 16th hole.

As Brown approaches the fan, the Sky Sports commentators engage in an amusing back-and-forth.

“Now where is Dan Brown’s ball?” One broadcaster asks.

“It’s on a lady … well, it’s … look, I could get in all sorts of trouble here,” says Wayne “Radar” Wiley.

“Careful, Radar,” the other broadcaster responds.

“I’m not going to do it,” Radar says. “But it’s on a lady’s chair and it’s behind her back and the bottom of the chair. And she’s sitting very, very still.”

“Play it as it lies?” the other broadcaster jokes.

“No, no, there’s no playing this one,” Radar responds.

“I’m still curious to see exactly where it is,” the other broadcasters says, as the camera pans over to the fan, where you can see the ball lodged between her backside and the back of her chair.

“Oh, look at that!” another broadcaster exclaims. “Isn’t that unbelievable!”

A rules official uses a tee to mark the spot where the ball is suspended in the chair, then gives the woman the go ahead to stand up. The ball falls to the ground, and Brown is able to play on.

Though Brown was able to take the drop without penalty, he ended up bogeying the hole and finished third in the tournament, two shots shy of a playoff between France’s Julien Guerrier and Spain’s Jorge Campillo. Guerrier ultimately prevailed with a par on the ninth playoff hole to notch his first-ever victory in 230 starts.
