Had to watch this. We just moved and are now overlooking one of the Greens on a local Golf course. This is a timely video since I have seen more clubs fly in the last month than I have seen in my inter life and I have been around for a very long time. The Green has two Sand Bunkers and a blind hill that they have to shoot over and the Pin gets moved every morning so you can see the frustration building as they get here near the end of the course.

I'm not a golfer. Played 2 or 3 times in my life with brother-in-law and his family. I'm Happy Gilmore in that I could tee off straight and long and then putt 3 or 4 times trying to get it in the hole.

Anyway, this older guy with us heaved his club after a bad tee off and it was the funniest thing I ever witnessed playing golf. Never forgot it. He did throw it in the direction we were headed so guess it wasn't the first time he's done this.

The story behind the video:

The two still go at it full bore today. After Kang played self-described "Wi-Fi" golf, missing wildly in both directions in San Francisco but with her short game carrying her to a T-5 finish at the LPGA Mediheal Championship, she and Harmon went back to work. In frustration, as she worked to get her swing back to neutral, Kang threw her club at one point. In response, Harmon then threw one himself.

“He said it's [her club throw] pitiful,” Kang said. “He's like, ‘Let me show you how to do it.’”
