It’s been a while since we’ve seen Steve Spurrier on a golf course.

For the last few years we’ve witnessed Georgia Tech’s Paul Johnson dominate the annual Chick-fil-A Bowl Challenge golf tournament, which features college football coaches and former athletes from across the South competing for charity. (Spurrier did win it twice in 2008 and 2009.)

But here may be why.

Here is Spurrier at RBC Heritage’s Pro-Am tournament on Wednesday.

Awkward? Or just like you’d do it?
