Jordan Spieth’s Adorable Son Absolutely Nailed a Tee Shot at the Masters Par 3 Contest

One of the best parts about Masters week is the Par 3 Contest that takes place on Wednesday every year at Augusta National. It's less about shooting low scores and more about making cool memories that will last a lifetime.
If you need more proof of that, then check out the awesome moment Jordan Spieth had with his young son Sammy on the second tee. Spieth, a Masters champion in 2015, helped tee up the ball for his son and then stood back and watched as Sammy caught the center of the clubface with his little driver.
Seriously, lots of amateur golfer would love to make this kind of contact:
