This guy telling a pro golfer how to play golf is straight out of the mansplaining hall of fame
In the mansplainer hall of fame – stick with us, we’re still working on it – this is somewhere close to the very top.
It’s an all-time classic instance of the phenomenon, a guy at a driving range offering a few tips to the woman teeing off next door.
And what makes it extra special is that he had no idea who he was talking to, pro golfer Georgia Ball, a PGA player and coach (check out her daily tips here!)
And here’s what happened, as shared by Georgia herself over on TikTok.

Just magnificent all round, from the unknowing dude to the perfect response. Here it is again, just in case that was tricky to watch.
Imagine being a Female PGA Professional and some guy comes up to you telling you how to swing

There was also a world of men telling her to wearing something other than those leggings, but that’s a whole different mansplaining story.
Why are the men down here complaining so much about her pants, you want her to golf in jeans, a hoodie and a jacket? Women can never have peace

Most of all, this.
I was dying for her to tell him

This is actually mental, he took credit for her swing

And this, very much this.
Trying not to scream at the monitor was killing me the entire video… she is one graceful lady to hold it together
