Kangaroos Invade Australian Open, Delay Start Of LPGA Tournament

An Australian golf course has recently become the site of a kangaroo invasion.

The unusual photograph of the unfolding scene first popped up on Reddit yesterday, and has already become an Internet favourite, with the original Redditor’s comments only adding to the hilarity of it all:

“Playing golf in Australia, this is the sh*t I have to put up with…”

The only condolences that can be offered to the poster is that at least it wasn’t a major tournament that the kangaroos disturbed; if it had been an important t-off, it could have turned into an all too familiar scene that took place at the start of this year at the Women’s Australian Open.

At that event, a mob of kangaroos made their presence known and caused a lengthy delay in game proceedings by staging another kangaroo invasion.

It was such an unexpected scenario that officials and Australian golfer, Karrie Webb, had to wait until they moved off the course.
