Some fans focused more on the audio of the clip than the incident

Besides the majority of the respondents focusing on the action in the video, a few people took it upon themselves to complain regarding the audio choice. They said, “Most annoying song and voiceover combined in one post.”,” Congrats! I wish this post did not have that annoying tune,” and “ No need for the song or narration.”

The diverging directions received by the video prove how perceptive fans can be. Nevertheless, incidents like these seem quite dangerous, and things could have been a lot worse for both the man and the other. Hence, it’s best to exercise caution and be careful while playing golf, even though it may be indoors!
