Golf and Hurricanes: Not a good match, to be honest. This was proven true recently when Hurricane Helene hit Florida. The unfortunate tragedy caused so much destruction that many in the golf world, including the PGA Tour, took to supporting the victims however they could. However, a certain golfing enthusiast seems to view the sport and the tragic twist of Mother Nature as a perfect match.

On one side are people devastated by Helene, while on the other, there is a golf fan who wants to play the sport amid a hurricane. Yes, you read that right! A tweet was shared by NUCLR GOLF, revealing how a man played the sport in a hurricane. The reason? It was all thanks to a “super hot deal” of being able to play 18 holes for just a measly sum of $5.

It does sound cheap! But that wasn’t the main issue here. Funnily enough, the tweet also shared two screenshots of a conversation between the enthusiast and his golfing friend, who was asked by the former for a round of “Hurricane Golf tomorrow.” His answer? “Absolutely not… Dude, you’re literally retarded. There’s gonna be tropical storm force winds starting at like noon.”

Do you think he listened to that? Not even in his wildest dreams! He messaged back, “I’ll be out here swinging and playing the best round of my life. I got a 2:30 tee time for super cheap it’s insane.” Needless to say, the golfing fan took to the course the next day to play amid the hurricane and managed to tee off early as well! Calling him adventurous would be an understatement!

Hurricanes don’t always provide the best backdrop for playing golf, as seen in the recent example of Helene. It caused so much devastation that many PGA Tour pros, including Luke List and Kevin Kisner, among others, took the initiative to help the victims affected by the storm.

The PGA Tour Pros don’t turn a blind eye to Hurricane Helene victims

During a press conference ahead of the Sanderson Farms Championship, PGA Tour Pro Luke List shared his intention to support the “Birdies for Augusta” initiative. Not only he, but his neighbor and fellow Augusta resident Henrik Norlander also pledged $500 to the Red Cross for every birdie they carded at the tournament. The result? List managed to score 14 birdies, resulting in a donation of $7,000, while Norlander made $8,500 from 17 birdies, all of which went to help the local victims of the tragedy in Augusta.

They weren’t the only ones to extend their hands to those affected. Kevin Kisner, the U.S. Presidents Cup assistant captain, took to hold a “Hurricane Helene Relief Concert,” on October 5, Saturday. He was able to urge the people to bring “non-perishable items or donate to The Kisner Foundation Hurricane Relief Fund for the CSRA.” The PGA Tour pro certainly found a unique way to help those in need. Truly inspiring! Take a bow, you guys!
