Phoenix Open streaker after losing job: It was worth it

Despite losing his job and facing $1,500 in fines, last week's Phoenix Open streaker Adam Stalmach doesn't entirely regret stripping down to his socks and running across the 17th fairway at TPC Scottsdale. 

Stalmach, 24, ran naked across the 17th during Wednesday's Pro-Am, before jumping into the sand and then break dancing in the fairway.

He spent five days in jail, where he admitted he was "embarrassed" and "regretful" but defended the entertainment aspect of the stunt.

"Yeah, it was worth it," he said. "As long as people got a kick out of it, it was worth it."

As a result of his actions, Stalmach lost his job as an area bartender in the wake of his arrest.

He explained that he benefited from some liquid courage in the form of at least eight drinks in the hour leading up to his decision to streak, a combination ranging from "Coors Light to regular Coors to chardonnay."

"The alcohol helped," he said. "I definitely wouldn't have done it if I was sober."

Arizona authorities were reportedly considering felony charges and a requirement for Stalmach to register as a sex offender if a child under the age of 15 was identified in the crowd, but ultimately allowed him to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of indecent exposure.

"Would I do it again? No," he said. "That was a one-time thing."
