THE DILEMMA Trying to mimic the pros at TPC Sawgrass, you and your golf buddies find the nearest course with an island green to see if sticking it close is as easy as it looks on tv. The moment arrives. You grab a nine-iron. Pull it back. And hope. The ball sails long left. You turn around in disgust. But then your partner yells, “It’s a bird! It’s a plane. It’s… on the green?!” Shocked, you turn around to see your ball a mere two feet from the hole. “What happened?” “Dude, it was headed right for the drink and then it hit a bird and ended up stiff.” “Wow. Is that legal? Can I play it from there?” THE RULING Nine-iron in hand, just in case you have to retee, your buddy informs you that it’s perfectly legal to play your ball where it lies since it was moved by an outside agent. Praising your good fortune and the USGA for Rule 18-1, you grab your putter, tap in for a two and tell the worst dad joke of the day— “So does that count for two birdies?” #golfswingcoach #golferselbow #golfmaster #golfcollege #golfmemes #golfgirls #golftournament #golftrickshot #golftips #golfswing #golfhotties #golfing⛳️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Br1RCSxBwbf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=f112ud57csl4
