The start of the 2021 British Open is still a day away but we already have a breakout star before even an official shot has be taken – Royal St. George’s head greenskeeper, Paul Larsen.
Larsen made an appearance on Golf Channel’s preview show Wednesday afternoon and he quickly went viral on golf Twitter because he looked like the coolest greenskeeper ever.
If you want to learn more about this dude I suggest you check out this great piece on him by the folks over The Fried Egg, which includes details on how Larsen once helped build a roller coaster in Australia, because of course.
Anyways, look at this legend:
