Fans chuckle at golf commentator’s reaction to ‘unusually shaped’ green as Rory McIlroy plays shot in Dubai

A commentator for Fox Sports in Australia made an awkward reference to an ‘unusually shaped’ green during the DP World Championship this week, leaving fans in a tizzy.

The commentator, believed to be Dominik Holyer, sees a wide shot of a green for hole No 17 on the Dubai course as Rory McIlroy has just played a shot.

Holyer goes out of his way about the configuration from ahead of the green, which looks like a man’s full genitalia.

‘What an unusual shaped green that is,’ the commentator said.

Fans were chuckling at the television sets at the joke that did not seem to land on-air.

It’s all taking place in the final event of the DP World Tour calendar at the Jumeirah Golf Estates Earth Course in Dubai.

McIlroy has found success in this event twice – coming in 2012 and in 2015.

As for Hatton, he’s been runner up twice – most recently in 2022 – but has not ever won the event.

Going into this event, McIlroy was atop the Race to Dubai by over 1,700 points over second-place Thriston Lawrence from South Africa.
