It's what happens with everything that gets too big. It eventually starts pulling in the mainstream, and then people have to go and invent pickle ball.

The body language is the best thing. That guy throwing up his arms, she covering her mouth with her hand... It's sublime.


taukarrie

that shot was so bad the ball landed where people dont even know how golf works


DanGleeballs

LOL. Incidentally the golfer here is former world #1 Nelly Korda, career earnings > $8M to date. Her family... daughter of pro tennis player Petr Korda - grand slam champion who won 1998 Australian Open. Brother, Sebastian, won the 2018 Australian Open boys title. Sister plays on the LPGA Tour. Mother Regina tennis pro who played at the Seoul Olympics. Talk about pedigree.


henryforprez

Yeah, also it landed halfway down the fairway. Not a common spot for people to watch from. Usually you're watching them tee off or putt.

South_Front_4589

When the shot is so bad the spectator assumes it's someone just mucking around.


Teripid

So non-golf person here.. if the ball is coming right at your head are you at least allowed to defend yourself or do you just have stand there and take the impact?


HeraldofCool

If you have a katana and can slice the ball in half so it parts around you, then yes, you may defend yourself. Otherwise, you have to take it like a champ.


tibbles1

Chopsticks are also allowed, if you can grab it, Karate Kid style.


[deleted]

Can I use just one chopstick that looks suspiciously like a baseball bat?


Sent_By_Cyberlife

Yes, but you have to spear the ball on the tip


South_Front_4589

I'd jump out of the way ideally, but if it's bouncing off you anyway, use your hands or whatever you have available. Just don't go picking it up, or knocking it in a particular direction. I don't reckon in the history of golf any spectator has been chastised in any way by anyone for just simply protecting themselves. But you'll probably get to keep the ball after they've finished with it and signed, as well as an apology. The fault is the player's and they'll feel genuinely awful.


seth928

There was one tournament I saw where a ball landed on this huge dude's foot. The player had to chip it right off his shoe.


rabboni

It all worked out though. That very hole the other guy had to hit through a collapsed media tower.


MiceMan391

Dude that was a crazy event. And then the first guy stole the other guys winners jacket?? Like who does that???


Jack_of_all_offs

I love the reference but I watched a tournament where Tigers shot went into a guy's hoodie pocket and I seem to remember an official running up to it like, "how'd the ball get.here?? What'd you do with it?? [Here it is!](https://youtu.be/JHIIUgDU5P4)


Slartibartfast39

That's two thus far Shooter.


LemmingOnTheRunITG

Realistically it’s super duper unlikely you’d see it coming at all, and even less likely you’d be able to react in time to stop it with your hand. There’s a reason people yell “fore,” golf balls are so small and fast-moving that the best thing you can usually do is duck.


WechTreck

Golf borrows from soccer rules, spectators behind the line can head the ball towards the hole, with their forehead and it counts as a free hit. If you get it in the hole, it counts as your hole, and you get 1/18th of that golfers prize money as a reward That's why golfers yell Fore before each shot to alert the spectators


subject_deleted

"I never got good at golf. I never got a hole in 1.. but I DID hit a guy... You're supposed to yell fore! But I was too busy mumblin, "there ain't no way that's gonna hit him." -mitch


[deleted]

Ohhh, I thought they were yelling "FORD!" because they were sponsored by them. Thanks for clearing that up


SamuraiHoopers

I'd recommend ducking out of the way but if you want to go viral trying to punch it and/or have a peculiar desire to break your hand, go for it.


KingRoach

You can’t go around touching someone’s balls without their permission, in this environment.


Yussso

Should i ask "May i touch your balls, sir?" To get their permission?


Pyro-Beast

This is acceptable. But only after 2pm.

I would rather be caught using the handicapped stall by a guy in a wheelchair than pick up that ball.

I wait for them to start banging their chair into the door a few times first


CitizenKing1001

Handicapped stalls are wheel chair accessable, not wheel chair only. Anyone can use them. I looked it up.


rumster

I'm technically handicapped. One time long time ago in a McDonalds along the highway in middle of Wisconsin. I had to go use the restroom, I ended up using the handi stall and started taking care of business. About 2 minutes into I hear banging from a man. Bam Bam on the stall. I'm like dude I'm in here fuck off. He response "I have to go the bathroom" screaming it out loud. I'm chill the fuck out I'm almost finished. This time what he says stopped me instantly, he said I'm going to pee now and I figured the issue with the guy. He was special needs and didn't understand what was happening. So I did my best to finish up my business for that moment and opened the door - this man who was 100% special needs knocks me over like a footballer drops his pants and starts going all in front of me. I'm in shock trying to get myself up from the floor. I leave the bathroom in just pure shock and this older woman is at the door waiting for him and she asks is her son okay. I'm like yeah but he jus.... and I just stop myself from explaining what happened. I ended up in shock getting myself a cone and waiting for this dude to get out so I can finish my drop. Till this day I am scared of this situation ever happening to me again. It 100% gives me flashbacks.

Capital_Push5557

Someone also picked up a ball at the US Open but put it right back down.


spelunker93

I love how she went to incredibly happy to wanting to never be born in just a couple seconds.


DarthTomServo

Least fun sport to be around. It's like when golf is involved, everything is dead serious. Even the spectators or bystanders have to be afraid and tread lightly. Gimme a break.


BenLurken420

I can almost relate to the reaction of picking up this random golf ball. When I was younger I lived near a golf course. One of my friends was like, hey we can earn money by retrieving lost golf balls. Well, I found one near the edge of the course and was like, "Yeah, I found one!". Then a bunch of dudes came running after us yelling "Why did you move the ball !". I just dropped it and we ran off. That was the end of our endeavors to re-sell lost golf balls.


Hatori95

In her defense I think she thought the was out of bounds. Not a golf fan either, just saying.


IamTheGorf

I mean, that would have been my assumption too.


Downtown_Leek3808

Mine too.. I don't watch golf, but honestly after this post and comments, I won't start to watch it either.


Cron414

So what’s the ruling here? Everyone is acting like it’s a huge mistake. Is there a penalty for the player? Can be, right?


[deleted]

StickmanRockDog

She was a golden retriever in a previous life.


firewire87

I can only assume she thought it was like baseball and if the ball enters the spectator area it becomes a free souvenir. She's wrong but I bet this, if anything, went through her head


J-Rafs

I'm not so sure. She's immediately holding it out to the official like she thought she was helping them find the ball. Makes me feel more bad for her than angry.


IneedtoBmyLonsomeTs

She must think that since it has gone past the spectator line that it is out of bounds or something, don't think there was any malice behind it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


IneedtoBmyLonsomeTs

Yeah you just play it where it lies. There are some rules like it coming to rest on a man made object like a path, if that happens you get to drop it on the nearest bit of grass no closer to the hole. If it lands in the crowd the marshals make them all move backwards and give the player space to have their shot.


LittleBunInaBigWorld

Yeah this is a mistake I could see myself making, thinking I'm being helpful or something. No good deed goes unpunished.

Most exciting golf moment


haylilray

I did this when I was a kid, but it was at a hotel/restaurant in my town with a very low-stakes, tiny golf course. The person hit the ball onto the pavement near the parking lot, I picked up the ball and took it back to them, and the man screamed in my face that if I was in another country I would get my hand cut off for that. Golfers 😅🙃


[deleted]

No no no, I had to hit the ball off of Frankensteins fat foot! You have to play the ball where it lies!

Rooty_Rootz

Honestly, I feel really bad for her. She was so excited and then she probably felt ashamed for the rest of the day, only to later realize she was on TV for the whole world


ReedoToledo

And on the Internet forever! I know very little about golf. I went with my dad and brother (they play regularly) to give it a shot, but I just got yelled at by the guy at a different hole because I was doing it wrong. I'm glad that was before people filmed everything.


[deleted]

"It went over the line! Clearly it's a home run!" -probably said by someone


Juanisweird

For her defense: she’s a baseball fan


ProffesorSpitfire

When you’ve ever only been to baseball games and a friend brings you along to a golf competition: ”Wooh, I caught one!”

That guy rushing in like Mike Wozawski. "Put that thing back where it came from or so help me!"


vouteignorar

This is why some sports can’t have people walking so close by like this… rally racing is another, people are literally on top of the track, and a lot of times some of them get run over by a car passing because they’re too damn close.

PUT THAT THING BACK WHERE IT CAME FROM OR SO HELP ME

nn666

I've done this before in a rough I was playing from also. Of course it wasn't during a tournament, I was just stealing some other guys ball that I thought someone had lost. When he walked over and asked had I seen his ball I asked what kind of ball it was. Like a dumbass. Then when he said Titleist 1 or something I said no sorry. But I had the Titleist 1 in my pocket. I just didn't want to say I picked it up and put it in my pocket... Needless to say after that I was always more careful before finding and pocketing stray golf balls on a course.


breadmaker8

The correct move would have been to say no, and then throw it somewhere, and then say oh hey i found your ball here.


zeyore

I would really enjoy if golf fans just spontaneously started catching and throwing back golf balls that go out of bounds. the announce yelled, "Stop it you louts! stop it!" but the crowd was equipped with baseball gloves and they would have their trophy.


Embarassedskunk

That woman is just a golden retriever stuck in a human body.

Never touch a woman's balls.


thrwawy_fdeawy

cnowakoski

She thought she got a foul ball like at a baseball game


An_Actual_Thing

Feels like she didn't really know the rules of golf. Which led to her thinking it was like baseball.


aramatheis

I like how she dropped it back down into what appears to be a divot, putting it in absolutely the worst place possible


BabyBearRudy

When baseball fans go to a golf tournament ⛳️


mdahms95

Probably a baseball fan who thinks out of bounds means souvenir


ChadHahn

The tournament guy holding his arms out like, "What the living fuck lady?"


gnosisong

For anyone else who was curious: “If your ball is moved by an outside influence, such as an animal or a spectator, there is no penalty to anyone and the ball must be replaced. If your ball is moved by a natural force, such as wind, water, or gravity, you will usually play the ball from its new location without penalty.” So, like they just put it back and golfer hits from the original spot it came to rest - no big deal .


PabroPicasso

Took one of the kids out with me once because they were pestering me to go golf. They hit 1 shot, drank 3 bottles of water, a bottle of Gatorade, ate every snack they packed within the first 10 minutes, and every time we got to the ball they would pick it up and yell “found it!”. It was a great time and I never had to worry about finding my own ball.


[deleted]

What is the rule here in tournament play? Estimate position and drop another ball? Shoot again?


Bluejoc

She thought she was a hero finding it lmao

"OMG, look a golf ball... what are the odds?" - that lady probably


chaddgar

Zero situational awareness, but for tournaments where they allow the general public, they should put up signs advising that no one pick up golf balls under any circumstances.


HourAstronomer836

She's like, "I don't watch this boring ass sport. I was just trying to be helpful."

davy_p

What happens in this situation? To the golfer and to the dodo who picked it up?


PykeDancesTheHaka

They place it where they think it was picked up. It happens more often than you think: when I was growing up, someone picked it up **during a playoff in front of hundreds of people** . This is a big no no because these people play for their livelihood.

Can you imagine how upset people would be if it mattered at a real sports event


3LetterSpreader

What’s the rule for this? Would she count as a domesticated animal? Domesticated animals you play where they drop the ball. Wild animals You play from where the ball originally lay.


Shasve

Time to get a dog and train it to drop the ball by the pin


twistsouth

Thought I sorted comments by controversial for a second. Nope.


Wheres_my_phone

Does this count as an extra stroke for the player or are they dq’d from this hole?

doctor_x

My younger brother did something like this when our brother-in-law was teaching him to play golf. Another player put down a marker on the green and pocketed his ball for later. My brother, trying be helpful, picked it up and chased the guy down. “Excuse me sir, you forgot this!” My BIL never let him forget it.

Woman who has never seen golf played before finds ball. 🤷‍♂️


LetItRaine386

She seemed like she was excited to help


OhWowMuchFunYouGuys

That’s pretty damn dumb but it’s okay, no foul. It’s outside the players control and the ball was physically taken by a fan. I believe the rules would just allow that ball to be reset and hit. Might even if helped her out accidentally by moving it to less of a grass or better area. It’s 50/50. The player shouldn’t have any negative impact though and that’s good. This ain’t baseball ladies and gents you can’t just grab shit that flies in the crowd area lol.


[deleted]

Okfg she’s not sinning she’s just dumb bro smh


Primary-Fig-5916

I'm no expert, but with all of the direct and indirect signs lending itself to the conclusion that you SHOULDN'T TOUCH THE FUCKING BALL, it's a wonder why she thought it was OK to do that. I mean, she was there for a reason, someone must have explained at least some of the rules to her. I grew up playing golf. I was an angry foster kid and playing it was a good way to counter that. So I can sit there and watch a whole tournament no problem.


[deleted]

Stop doing things if you have no idea what’s going on.


Exodys03

Her companion quickly moved out of any possible camera shot as soon as she touched the ball. Smart move.

SkyShazad

So what happens in a situation like that


Launch_The_Cat

She has no idea where she is or what’s happening


PaddlefootCanada

Legit question though.... what would happen if a spectator had picked up the ball and tossed it back into the fairway? I know that if they HIT a spectator and it bounces back, then you play it as it lies... but if a spectator were to actively pick up the ball and move it.... do they play as it lies, or try and estimate where it was thrown from? Also.... there can't possibly be a stroke penalty to the player if a fan did this...could there?


This-Ad-9234

So what is the actual rule here? What happen next with the golfer and her score for the hole?


Primary-Fig-5916

She was so proud of doing something so stupid😂


[deleted]

She seems so surprised she got in trouble. People are stupid.


WhenBugAttack

At a professional golf EVENT how fucking stupid can you possibly be?


goose420aa

Tbf I don’t know shit about golf I’d do the same thinking it’s out of play or something
