In modern times, golf athletes play far away from the crowd. There is a high-security system and no one from the crowd can breach the field. However, this is not how the game was played back in the old days.

There existed one part of the game which allowed the crowd right on the hole. Recently there was a video that showed how golf was back in the old days. There has been a video that surfaced on Twitter that represents a player taking a shot.

The audience and golf in the early times.

This golf video is from way back as it is in black and white. However, one of the most striking things that we see in the video is that when the golfer takes the shot and succeeds, the whole, crowd immediately jumps on the hole. This is done to grab that ball which went into the hole. Multiple persons struggle to get their hands on the hole to find that winning ball. This was how the sport was back in the old days in some places. It is interesting to see how the audience reacted to these kinds of events.

After the video got uploaded, it was widely shared on the internet and people reacted crazily to this weird incident of grabbing the ball as soon as it hit the hole.
