The Skeet-in-Dubai Golf Shot

FOUR EUROPEAN TOUR PROS arrive in the desert, the glimmering skyscrapers of Dubai not far in the distance. Thongchai Jaidee, David Horsey, Johan Edfors and Simon Khan attempt to hit a fast-moving clay pigeon. Only instead of shotgun and shell, they are using a golf club and golf ball of choice.

Easy? Hardly. But can it be done?

“It could be a while,” says one.

“Can’t leave here without doing it,” says another.

Different ball flights and timing are tried. There are a few near hits until ... well, watch and see.
