There’s no denying that Greg Chalmers is one of the more experienced players on the PGA Tour circuit, with the Australian holding professional status since 1995. Along with the experience, he is also certainly a fan favourite and, during the third round of the Byron Nelson Championship, his popularity rose even further!
After making the cut, Chalmers headed into the weekend at eight-under-par, with the 49-year-old looking to make further inroads as he went in search of a second PGA Tour win. Despite making a bogey at the first hole, he recovered with two birdies at the second and fifth. However, it was the par 3 seventh where Chalmers’ most notable moment came…

Obviously, the actions of Chalmers caused a huge positive reaction on Twitter, with one user tweeting: “I’ve been fortunate to get to know @GregChalmersPGA the past few years. The story below does not surprise me even a little. He is simply an awesome guy in every imaginable way,” whilst one commented: “This is what golf is all about. Great to hear.”
