Scottie Scheffler Wins Golf Tournament For the 6th Time This Year After Forced into Playoff on 18 After Climate Change Warriors Spray the Hole d w

 

Golf by its very nature is a difficult game to play
A player needing to put a golf ball in a small hole some 100 to some 600 yards away
Trying to stay in the fairway and avoid the water, sand traps, bunkers and out of bounds
While miscues like slices, hooks, and shanks to the golfer’s low score attempt confound
With putting greens surrounded ponds, creeks and sand
With greens so hard and slanted that a ball may not stop where it lands
Or with greens too slow or too fast and maybe impossible to read
And often played in winds that alter the ball’s path and speed
Like tennis in golf spectators are motionless and silent until a club has hit the ball
Then groans for an errant shot or cheers and applause for the shot that enthralls
But today on TV and spectators lined up at the 18th hole at the Travelers’ Championship
Watching Scottie Scheffler and Tom Kim battling neck and neck for a win or playoff trip
Saw a band of climate change eco warriors burst out of the crowd spraying the green
With police tackling them as fast as pro football players we have seen
Wearing T-Shirts “No Golf on a Dead Planet” for support of their cause
As a way to gain support hearing the outraged boos totally flawed
Kim then birdied the hole and Scheffler with ice in his vein made par
Then back to the 18th tee for a sudden death playoff to see who would be barred
Kim hit his second shot into the trap and Scheffler his second  onto the green 11 feet from the hole
Kim’s third shot soared out the trap to land 36 feet away making a birdie or par a nearly impossible goal
Kim missed his fourth shot and Scheffler’s third shot was inches short for an easy par
So Scheffler for the 6th time this year was the winning star
And the climate change warriors in handcuffs sent off to jail?
Seeking more support for climate change with their idiocy failed
