Stand back. Stand well back.
Everyone that plays golf on a regular basis is prone to a moment of rage now and again, even the professionals.
Balls get kicked away and clubs get thrown when a round isn’t going so well, but normally nothing is hurt apart from the pride of the player who’s having a bad day.
Leinster and Ireland star Sean O’Brien posted video evidence of one of his mates, Gary Kenny, having a bad experience on the course recently and causing an unintentional injury to one of his playing partners in the process.
Golfing with @cashel11 is some entertainment by the looks of things http://t.co/I8IWLHSLHg 😂😂😂

The video was uploaded to YouTube by Leinster Rugby nutritionist Daniel Davey, who we featured in an Optimum Nutrition series recently and who is involved in the excellent Food Flicker on Twitter.
It wasn’t Daniel that got hit by the club (the injured party wanted to remain anonymous) but apart from some mildly NSFW language in the immediate aftermath, he took the blow very well.
Maybe wear some shin pads the next time you go out for a round with the Red Maestro lad, just in case.
