Ballymena bovines enjoy the golf on mooooving day

Saturday, September 26, 2020

A farmer brought some friends to watch the action on day three of the 2020 Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.

There was some sparkling golf played on day three at Galgorm Spa & Golf Resort but on social media it was the spectators that were drawing a lot of the attention.

There may be beefed up safety protocols due to Covid-19 but outside the tournament bubble, if you can get a view and you obey the local restrictions, you can still enjoy the European Tour live.

That was the case for some lucky farmers on day three, and when they were joined by a big group of bovine buddies, the cameras were on hand to capture the moment.

And of course, the internet was quick to latch on to the amoosing situation.

ET: No spectators @DubaiDutyFree Irish open this year. Farmer & his Cows: It’s grand lads, we’ve herd immunity 🤣🐄☘️ #OnlyinIreland https://t.co/2ER74xBWqt

The @GalgormResort course is proving to be a great venue for the #DDFIrishOpen and an excellent test of golf. Maybe not quite as tough to score as Winged Foot was last week, but with a more diverse and interesting set of challenges.

And the crowds have been fantastic...! 🐮 pic.twitter.com/z6FcrkNUDJ
