VIDEO: Gary Woodland strips down to underwear for shot at The Honda Classic

Gary Woodland didn't hit the best tee shot on the sixth hole at PGA National's Champion Course on Sunday at The Honda Classic. In fact, his ball wound up in a water hazard.

But it wasn't such a bad tee shot that he couldn't hit his ball again without a wardrobe adjustment.

So, Woodland took off his socks, shoes and pants to hit his second shot only wearing his golf shirt and underwear. The shot wound up in a greenside bunker, but Woodland was able to get up-and-down for a par.

He put on his pants in time for the bunker shot.
