A video of Tommy Fury literally having a swing at golf is fast gaining traction. Given the way he moved heaven and earth just to get one stroke, it didn’t take much time before a stream of followers jumped in, pouring their hearts out, mostly digs and quips, in the comment box.

Happy Punch shared the nearly half-minute-long footage through its official X/Twitter handle. Fans saw the scion of the Fury family fend off the challenge from KSI on October 14 last year. The victory followed a split decision win over Jake Paul on February 26. A professional boxer, Fury, triumphed over both the YouTuber-turned-boxers. But considering how closely contested the fights were, a few questions did come up over his boxing prowess. As it appears from the latest golfing clip, some of the users didn’t hesitate either to roast Fury over his boxing.

Happy Punch tweeted, “Tommy Fury gotta stick to boxing.” The attached footage shows ‘TNT’ making his first attempt. It failed. Soon, it was followed by two more. But the outcome was the same. None of his strokes touched the golf ball. It seems he was accompanied by friends or acquaintances, since their laughter was audible in the background.

Finally, after correcting his posture, Fury managed to hit. It was over to the users and followers now to share what they felt was best.

For instance, this user disagrees. According to them, Tommy Fury stands nowhere, even when it boils down to boxing. They cited the examples of the Jake Paul and KSI fights. Fury found himself facing stiff competition during those matches.

But to this follower, it appears that perhaps Tyson Fury‘s brother is more proficient in golf than he is in boxing.

The next user took a neat dig. So they shared that initially, when Tommy Fury mentioned that he’s an athlete and a boxer, the user felt that he probably meant the sport. But they were mistaken. The reality is that he is into packing Amazon orders (boxes). According to the user, a person like ‘TNT’ makes the word ‘awkward’ look far more promising.

The next follower urged that Tommy Fury should stay put with activities such as bodybuilding and modeling.

Then the next one shared that aside from the loss he inflicted on KSI, the Fury family scion comes off appalling at almost all the activities he lays his hands on.

Quite a few zesty lot there. Perhaps, as far as he is concerned, the golf thing was never meant to be as serious as it was made out to be. Just a casual attempt from Tommy Fury. Who knows, for he might have done better in subsequent tries.

As of now, not much detail is available regarding Tommy Fury’s upcoming fights. The shadow of the much-talked-about rematch with Jake Paul, though, continues to loom. Given ‘The Problem Child’ is signed up with the Professional Fighters League (PFL), there are reports that suggest a two-match offer: one boxing and one mixed martial arts fight.
