Taking a pun-intended turn to the situation, this golf enthusiast joked about tickets being inexpensive and said, “Tickets were cheap – 2 bucks ?” While another Instagrammer did not understand the humor and explained that “it’s like 40rand”. 

As the grazing of the two bucks ruined the turf and grass around it, this fan told the bucks, “Tell those bozos to fix their divots”. “No place like home,” another South African came in to praise his home country.

While this fan was actually worried about the conditions of green, he said, “Greens ruined,” another greeted the visitors saying “Welcome to South Africa ❤️❤️”.
