Martin Kaymer was on the 18th hole at the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai when he hit a ball just a little too close to the gallery. The ball landed in play, at least until two kids dove under the ropes and swiped it right off the course.
The best, and worst, part about the whole video is that the dad did nothing to stop them, no other fans did anything to stop them, and the marshal, who was standing five feet away from them, did nothing. I mean I’m not a professional playing for millions of dollars and I can’t stand when people pick up my ball without consent from me first.
Kaymer was allowed to replace the ball and finished the hole with a par.
Remember folks, if you’re heading out to watch a tournament with your kids, make sure they have a front row seat, watch out for errant drives, and please don’t let them pick up the golf balls that are in play.
