Regular golfer praised for her reaction after being 'mansplained' by person next to her

She says it puts her off being there alone

A regular golfer has been praised for the reaction she had after someone ‘mansplained’ to her.

You might remember a similar situation the other year when a golf pro was given advice by some guy on her swing.

In this case, ‘wannabe golfer’ Becca was given a lesson from a ‘dude’ who has been ‘shanking and topping’ her balls throughout her entire practice session at a driving range.

Becca uses her TikTok platform to document her golf journey, sharing videos of her sessions, trips to different courses, and often advice for others interested in the sport.

Racking up millions of views since she started sharing content in 2023, Becca's viewers say they were surprised she ‘stayed so calm’.

In the video, golf balls can be seen firing out from off camera, going in a totally random direction, as her in-video caption calls it a ‘safety hazard’.

A voice from the ‘dude’ can then be heard saying ‘eh girl’ before saying: “Your club face needs to be fixed.”

She says she was ‘trying to keep it together’ as he continued ‘mansplaining’.

He apparently then began demonstrating how she should swing because ‘that’s why your ball keep on going to the left’.

And as he carried on and she struggled to keep a straight face, she added: “If you’re gonna mansplain… at least know how to hit a golf ball.”

Becca explained in the caption that he was giving ‘advice’ for about two hours, but as he was with ‘a bunch of his bros’, she felt ‘uncomfortable’ speaking up.

“Unfortunately the bays were full and I couldn’t move,” she added. “Ladies can you relate? I swear this always happens to me too often… and usually it’s only when I go to the range on my own. I just came here to work on my swing in peace.

“Honestly this is why I sometimes get ‘nervous’ going to the driving range alone, especially when the bays are filled w/dudes.”

She said it puts her off the driving range. (Getty Stock)

One user commented to say: “This is why I wear headphones in public places even if nothing is playing.”

While another suggested she should ‘show him the video of where your shots were going and where his were going’.

“You’re a better person than me, that man would have gotten a 3 page essay on how to not shank a golf ball,” one wrote.

Others said she was demonstrating ‘beautiful swings’ as they would have ‘lost it’ at him.
