A cameraman created a lot of controversy at the U.S. Open.
Dustin Johnson earned his first career major victory Sunday at Oakmont Country Club, but his significant other's near wardrobe malfunction was the talk of social media.
After his victory, Johnson and blonde bombshell Paulina Gretzky were walking up the steps to the clubhouse from the 18th green with their son as a cameraman followed them from behind. The camera then seemed to pause a tick when Gretzky put her hands on her backside to keep her skirt from blowing up.
The incident was met with some backlash on social media, while other users saw some humor in it:

As for Johnson, he was just happy to finally be able to overcome his obstacles and win a major championship.
"I think it's well-deserved," the golfer said afterward via the New York Post. "After everything that I've been through in the majors -- I've knocked on the door a bunch of times -- to finally get a major win, it's a big monkey off my back for sure. I feel a lot lighter. Obviously, I've been here a bunch of times and haven't quite gotten it done. But today I did and it feels great."
As for the incident, Gretzky has been no stranger to posting sultry photos on Instagram, but that doesn't mean it made it right for the cameraman to do what he did:
