Officials for the Professional Golfer's Tour will not fine John Peterson for his "Happy Gilmore" tee shot which opened his final round at the CIMB Classic earlier this month.

The former LSU golf star told a tour VP, "I was just trying to get twenty more yards out of the shot."

Although Peterson's drive found a water hazard, he said he practices the shot often and has used it before in tournaments, albeit in junior's competition.

And when asked about the possibility of a fine, Peterson said with a wink, "I was going to start a GoFundMe page."
