Tiger Woods' fart on 18th fairway at Buick Open
The camera follows Tiger Woods walking up the 18th fairway of Sunday's Buick Open from behind, a normal enough looking golf scene. Caddy Stevie Williams carries Woods' bag, while Woods performs some odd-looking calisthenics, stretching out his right leg. And then one of them lets loose a fart loud enough to be heard on camera.
Woods and Stevie immediately begin laughing, none of the announcers say a word, and soon we cut away to a different shot. It shows a side of Tiger Woods we seldom get to see on or off the golf course: his human side. Some would argue that it was a little too human, but the fact of the matter is it is hilarious, and must happen all of the time.
Woods appears to be trying to find a way to get through the incident as quietly as possible, working it out with his right leg while Stevie gets the bag down. What comes next is so loud, so gaseous that some people are incorrectly assuming it is an off-camera fan with a whoopee cushion. Not so.
Given the fact that crews with cameras and microphones follow golfers around for the entirety of their rounds, with agreed-upon breaks only during commercials, it is simply amazing that this doesn't happen more often. As of yet, neither Woods nor Williams have made public comment on the incident, but proper golf etiquette dictates that he who smelt it dealt it.
