Video: Dustin Johnson takes out volunteer with Happy Gilmore-esque drive

Posted by

Dustin Johnson had an incredible run in 2020, winning the Masters, the Traveler’s Championship, and the Tour Championship and now he has a new title ‘Best take out of a volunteer ever.’

Johnson was flying at the Saudi International this week, posting a three-under par in the opening round but one shot in particular has gotten the attention of the golf world.

Johnson’s drive on the 10th hole from 372 yards out smashed into the spine of a volunteer sending them crashing to the ground.

The man walked off the course but he looked to be in a tremendous amount of pain after the powerful drive struck him.

Johnson did look concerned and even the commentary team said it’ll leave a bruise but thankfully the injured party was on his feet again in no time.

He may not have enjoyed the experience but it’s a cool story to tell the grandkids.
