The behaviour of the crowd at the WM Phoenix Open this weekend has divided golf fans.
On his 26th birthday, and as is tradition during the Tuesday practice round before the Masters, Jon Rahm attempted to skip his ball across the pond at the 16th hole.
Some golfers spend their entire lives dreaming of a hole-in-one. Rocco Figaretti ain’t one of them.
Golf fans enjoyed a superb final round of the SA Open, with two of our top talents battling it out for the title.
German golfer Marcel Siem had a decent weekend on the European Tour, his ace on Saturday scoring him a lekker set of wheels.
This weekend saw Ernie drain another hole-in-one, but it was what he did following the ace that has many singing his praises.
South African Louis Oosthuizen nailed that rarest of gems at Royal Troon’s 14th hole, and as you can imagine he was rather pleased.
There is no such thing as a bad hole-in-one, although this effort from our local lad did require a touch of luck to find the hole.
It can’t be easy teeing up as a laaitie in front of your hero, but this young man wasn’t fazed in the least. Like an absolute boss.
Weekend golfers, this one’s for you. We’ve all suffered our fair share of horror shots so enjoy one from a tour professional and feel better about your game.
You have to give it up for Jack Nicklaus, 75 years old and still chugging along. Not a bad swing, and not a bad result either at yesterday’s Masters par-three contest.
