Golf is full of unpredictable moments. You never know which way the ball will turn on the golf course. It is especially frustrating when the golf ball reaches the edge of the hole and then refuses to drop in. This is what happened with Thorbjorn Olesen recently.

Fans are with Thorbjorn Olesen
The video is captioned, “A full horseshoe for @thorbjornolesen🫣”. It has received several reactions from fans. “No way,” said a fan who was very disappointed.
“Brutally lucky, the pace was crazy fast,” said a fan, while another questioned, “Brutal? The dope hit it too hard”. Another fan added, “Yeah it’s called hitting it too hard and it didn’t fall because of pace. Nothing brutal about it.”
A fan was direct when he wrote, “I actually feel sick”. Meanwhile, another fan quipped, “10feet past if it wasn’t for the hole.”

All said and done, the ball didn’t go in. There was a fan who was not so negative about it, though. He wrote in Spanish, “Que de gracias, se pasaba” (What a blessing it was).
