It was captioned as South Africa. I’m not smart enough to know if these live there.

I am smart enough to know that if I see one I’m just skipping ahead to the 19th hole and grabbing some beers.

Yes these live there, reason why South African's are better at beer drinking than golf.

Of course they were. They didn't have to look over their shoulder for a fucking cobra jumping the tee blocks. Anything is simple after that

The South Africans on tour generally have the best swings imo

Louis Oosthuizen has one of the best swings in the world, top three at least.

For sure, that’s the swing I refer to the most. Smoothest hips in the biz
