During the first round of the 2024 Shriners Children's Open at TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas, fan-favorite Joel Dahmen was assessed a four-stroke penalty for having 15 clubs in his bag.
Dahmen made par on his opening two holes, but those scores were changed to double-bogey 6s after the blunder.
The 36-year-old has played in all three FedEx Cup Fall events so far this year, with the Shriners being the fourth, and has finished T-50 (Procore Championship), MC (Sanderson Farms Championship) and T-40 (Black Desert Championship).
In seven previous starts at TPC Summerlin, Dahmen has made it to the weekend six times and finished inside the top 10 twice.
