The European Tour has gone above and beyond in creating quality video content that not only shows just how talented some of their Tour members are, but also how much fun they have playing a game for a living.
The latest video to come out of the Euro Tour’s HQ is called “The Heckle” and it pitted Andy Sullivan, Nicolas Colsaerts, Thorbjorn Olesen and Paul Waring in a two-on-two matchup that featured a no-holds-barred heckler challenge meant to distract, intimidate and bother their opponents.
Golfweek.com had more details.
The contest was two on two (Sullivan and Olesen vs. Colsaerts and Waring). We’re not really sure we needed the “performance study” intro as justification for this video, because what transpired was absolutely hilarious regardless of any context.
In the video, the players engaged in a series of heckles via props. The whole list of heckling acts during play: Yelling into megaphones, blowing air horns, throwing water balloons, blasting water guns, talking on the phone, taking pictures as posed professional photographers, playing badminton, running leaf blowers, spinning the opponent around and having the opponent putt with a blindfold.
Despite the blindfold, an assist from Colsaerts and a solid stroke from Waring earned the Belgian and Englishman a win in the made-up, but fun event.
