‘Thor Out There Putting’: Golf Fans Left in Divine Dilemma, As Lord Zeus Creates Havoc on a Public Course

Natural calamities are inevitable. And when that disaster comes in the form of intense lightning and thunder, it becomes a persistent problem. Especially, if there is an open ground. 

Such incidents have previously taken place across the US. And most of the lightning deaths in the US are connected to outdoor recreational activities. And in this case, a golf course faced the wrath of Zeus! And this incident recently staggered the golf world!

Fans react to intense lightening at a golf course

As far as natural calamities are concerned, golf courses have a history. Recently, a post shared on social media recently showed a golf course scarred by a lightning strike around last week. The marks left behind as a result seemed to look like a tree spreading out its branches. And this structure was spread all-around the hole, near the flag. 

Fans were shocked to see the damage and shared their judgments in the comments under the Twitter post:

“First ace for lightning”, said one fan referring to the golf shot ‘ace’.

Another fan wrote, “Thor out there putting” equating to the Marvel God of Thunder!

Another fan criticized by saying, “Bad Pin placement.”

Two other fans expressed that, “The gods were doing closest to the pin” and “Lightning strike or no lightning strike I’m still 3 putting”.
