Amid the rain delay at the Wyndham Championship, Joel Dahmen's caddie, Geno Bonnalie, decided to run a 200-meter sprint. It was quite fitting, given the current Olympic fever.
Dahmen is at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina, for the Wyndham Championship. However, he and other players couldn't tee off on Thursday, August 8, as Tropical Storm Debby hit Greensboro, postponing play to Friday, August 9.
Bonnalie shared a video on his Instagram account where Dahmen challenged him to sprint 200 meters. Bonnalie accepted the challenge and did a little warm-up before hitting the 'track.' He also revealed that this was the first time he had run consecutive 200 meters since high school.
Dahmen sat in the car to track Bonnalie's speed on a speedometer. The bagman eventually finished the race in 34 seconds.
"I felt like my b**bs were flopping," he replied after finishing the race.
Here's the video:
When will Joel Dahmen tee off at the Wyndham Championship?
Joel Dahmen is grouped with Carl Yuan and Matti Schmid for the opening two rounds of the Wyndham Championship. The group will tee off from the 10th hole of the Sedgefield Country Club and will be fifth to the last to begin the round. The tee time is yet to be announced.
The play on Friday will not begin anytime before 8:50 am ET and the rules committee will decide the changed tee times only after assessing the course conditions.
Dahmen is currently 117th in the FedEx Cup standings, with faint chances of qualifying for the FedEx Cup Playoff. However, for that, he will have to win the Wyndham Championship.
The 36-year-old golfer has made 13 cuts in 21 appearances this season, with his T10 finish at the RBC Canadian Open being his only top-10 finish. However, he has failed to make the cut in his past three starts.
