i'm glad he was able to help her achieve her lifelong goal of becoming a professional golfer with their 20 second exchange
This hilarious video reminds me of the time a spectator commented that, at a PGA tournament, Lee Trevino made a lucky shot. His comeback line was "The more I practice, the luckier I get".
From gym shaming to this shit. Give me a fucking break 😢
I loved when she responded “OK”!
I love how gracious she is 😊
"Thanks mum and dad". She's on the ball more than any of the men that speak to her.🤣🤣
She is so sweet, smart, humble and unassuming. Sounds like a great person. When I became a parent, we received a lot of "unsolicited" advice. The funny part was, most of the advise was from people who weren't even parents. I doubt this guy is any better at golf than she is.
Rumor has it that he has 20 years of telling people how to to swing. lmao
I'm impressed at how nice to him she was about it. If it was me, I would have lost my patience and snapped SO fast.
She should have asked him for a swing demonstration infront of the camera.
Reminds me of the episode of the Andy Griffith show where barney fife tells Opie how to hold a football when throwing it, and Opie says Johnny Unitas says you should hold it this way. Barney then says well everyone has their own technique. Andy is laughing at barney.
She was very cool about the whole thing. Props. It could also have been agism.
Such a gracious lady. I certainly am not 😅
What’s really sad is the guy didn’t even say “you already have a great swing”. I think the guy is just uneducated in golf and life
Who in the golf course doesn't know Georgia ball.... That's nothing more than a Pick up line....😂😂😂😂
This is a smaller version of her story. My daughter was the captain of a top-20 college swim team, and she learned to lift weights from the college football weight-lifting coach. When she would come home for summer or (a short) Christmas break we would go to the gym and lift weights. Men who were doing it all wrong but looking to hit on a woman lifting weights would "mansplain" to her the "proper technique to lift". Very annoying for her. Sometimes she would immediately come over to my station, just so we could laugh loudly at the mansplainer, and get him to leave her alone. But, I'm sure that is all prep for her future. She just got accepted to medical school, and fully expects the patients to call her "nurse" when she is a doctor.
As a man, I must say.....golf is bundle of sticks.
How old is that video???
This is hilarious. THANK YOU, Georgia, for not playing the victim here. Instead, you treated him with kindness and it worked out beautifully for you content-wise. Hahaha
I bet he's relieved his face isn't on the video!
