Robert Macintyre has an epic club throw at Portrush

Robert Macintyre has an epic club throw at Portrush

It was an up-and-low for Scotland's Robert Macintyre, who was in the lead at the 2025 Open Championship during the third round.

But he had a couple too many blemishes on the map and frustrations cooked over. One of these bogeys came on Par-4 14, one of the hardest holes during the week, but he brought an incredibly reliable moment for amateur golfers around the world.

Bobby Mac met his approach to the green and did not record his approach cleanly. He pushed his club in Royal Portrush in the lawn and could only see how he boomed in the air for a few seconds before he got down again. Talk about an impressive throw.

Make notes, children.

Macintyre, who won the Scottish Open last year, will go to the final round in the final 10 in the last big championship of the year.
