“Well, s***”: Danica Patrick makes her feelings known to ‘average golfer’ claim on her IG story

Danica Patrick recently reacted to an intriguing claim put forward by golf coach Justin Klemballa. The claim was made on the T-Time with Tori Totlis podcast, a clip of which was shared on Tori Totlis' Instagram handle.

Golf is widely regarded as one of the most technically demanding sports. From perfecting swings to putting, the game requires a blend of skill, patience, and precision. Many amateur players struggle to consistently score well, and a recent statement from golf coach Justin Klemballa shed light on just how difficult the game is for most players.

Speaking to Tori Totlis, Klemballa Klemballa explained that the average golfer is unable to break a score of 100. He said:

"The average golfer cannot break a 100. I think a lot of people see as, 'Oh man! If I cannot break a 100, I'm like one of the worst players in the world.'"

He clarified that most amateur golfers compare themselves to the top 25% of players at their club, who tend to practice more frequently and play more often. Klemballa said:

"You're comparing yourself to like the top 25% of the actual golfers, because they tend to just play a lot more often, and they practice a lot more often."

He further revealed:

"But you think that's all the golfers in the world, but they're not. If you take every person who plays golf in the world, the average is not breaking 100."

The claim caught the attention of Danica Patrick, the former IndyCar and NASCAR driver. Taking to her Instagram story, Patrick reposted the reel and captioned it:

"Well s***, I guess I need to play with more "average" players."
