CNN —Losing a golf club in a tree?
The Dutch golfer had already been enduring a Sunday to forget at the season-ending DP World Tour Championship in Dubai when his drive from the ninth tee went sailing left into a bunker.
“Taking tree trouble to the next level,” posted the DP World Tour on its X account.
Three birdies in a row soon followed but ultimately came too little too late, as a final round one-over 73 saw Luiten sign off at three-over overall, 48th of the 50-player field.
“I was frustrated, one of those weeks [when] nothing went my way,” Luiten told reporters.
