This pro has one of the craziest golf swings you’ll ever see
Check out Hosong Choi’s wildly wonderful golf swing. And just missed out on qualifying for The Open.
We’ve seen a few crazy golf swings over the years but they’re always from an amateur golfer. This is the first wild and whacky swing we’ve ever seen from a tour pro (not counting Jim Furyk).
The golfer in question in Korea’s Hosong Choi and remarkably he was leading the Asian Tour’s Kolon Korea Open when it first popped up on social media.
And it was proving difficult to believe.

But as more eyes turned towards the Asian Tour TV coverage it was clear this crazy swing was very real. And more great swings kept coming from Choi.

Ranked 554th in the world, Choi needed to finish on the top-3 at the Kolon Korea Open to qualifying for The Open Championship at Carnoustie in July.
Unfortunately, Choi’s swing didn’t stand up in the final round, closing with a 3-over par 74, just one stroke out of a tie for third place.
