Apparently, Erik Compton is a psychic -- and a pretty good artist

April 09, 2015

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Two-time heart transplant recipient Erik Compton gave golf one of its best stories in 2014 when he finished T-2 at the U.S. Open. That surprising performance also earned him a first invite to Augusta National this week.

Well, perhaps, that last part wasn't as surprising to him.

Less than three hours before his 11:03 a.m. tee time, Compton tweeted this prophetic sketch:

Tough to argue with that. It took 35 years, but Compton is finally living a childhood dream. Oh, and is that supposed to be No. 2 at Augusta National? Not bad, Erik.
