It is not always feasible for schoolgoers to frequent a golf club or putt-putt course. They have busy schedules, what with their schoolwork and mixers. Therefore, when a brilliant opportunity to utilize recess as a time for golf lessons presented itself, a group of boys jumped at it.
Ok, they may have created the opportunity themselves. Turning the field beside the walkway into a golf course was inspired. They dug small holes on the muddy terrain that resembled the ups and downs of a professional golf course. They got themselves a few clubs and started playing the game.
In the video, they even added the special touch of professional events by adding the players’ names along with their country of origin. They playfully included fake credentials as well.

Seems like the boys managed to replicate the thrills of a professional golf course and are having the time of their lives. The video is already running rampant on the internet and golf fans are diving in with their mixed reactions.
The golfing community is stunned at the splendid new golf course
Golfing fans have received similar news from around the world of late but this seems particularly amusing. The way the boys are enjoying the game and their creative sense of adding names, nationality, and a couple of credentials were particularly awe-inspiring.
One fan was confused if the names mentioned in the video are actual golfers on the Amateur or Pro circuits. “Wait, so them young men, that were mentioned, have already been playing in pro and have won matches?”

Some fans were tremendously impressed by the gameplay. They commented, “Marco went home a man that day.” And “Not sure what’s more indicative of male behavior, that we do stuff like this, or that we’d 100% watch it on tv.”
Other fans were just happy to see the younger generation taking such an interest in the sport. “Gotta love seeing kids of any age enjoying the great outdoors!” While some appreciated the effort of the young boys in creating the putt-putt course, “Nicer greens than Links of Victoria.”
There were also fans who reminisced about their own childhood and the games they played that were a lot like golf. “Who’s old enough to remember collecting and playing marbles at school? Kinda like golf but using our finger as a putter. Using a golf ball and putter would have better prepared me for adult life!”
