Besides going out of the course to play golf, golfers like watching the game on television as well. And there are some very hilarious moments caught on camera.
Take the 2008 Zurich Classic of New Orleans golf Tournament for example. Players had to stop in the middle of their game when a swamp of bees/wasp? decide to interrupt the game.
While one player just had to stoop down for a while, his competitor and two caddies had to lie flat on the greens. That is not you find in many golf games, left alone at a tournament.
However, hilarious though that shot might be, my number one golf TV moments have to be awarded to Woody Austin. He was playing in the 2007 President Cup, when he fell into the water after he hit the ball. Everyone who interviewed him after that day wanted to talk about that moment.
The next day, Austin reported for the tournament wearing scuba gear. If he has to take another dive, at least he is better prepared.
