An image of Tiger Woods playing a shot from the rough during the US PGA Championship went viral – and not because of Tiger Woods.

Not surprisingly, fans in the gallery in the background were making sure they captured Woods on their phone.

But one guy stood out from the crowd – he stood there watching Woods without a phone and simply holding on to his beer. Like some sort of psychopath.

Social media noticed him and the image went viral.

And there were a bunch of hilarious memes that popped up soon after…

And now Michelob Ultra, the beer this guy was holding on to has found him and taking his notoriety up a notch with a sponsorship deal.

It turns out the guy’s name is Mark Radetic and he’s now got a stack of beer in the fridge.

“It really took off because everybody was on their cam except me, and I was holding a Michelob Ultra,” said Radetic. “They said they want to do an ad campaign around it. Ultra has offered to give me as they said copious amounts of Ultra.”
