Footage has surfaced online of the shocking moment one golfer headbutts another through a clubhouse window in an extraordinary fight.
In the footage – filmed at Lake Club Benoni in Gauteng, South Africa – a man is filmed shouting across bar at another man identified only as ‘Mike’.
The man is heard to say: “You’re a thief, man. You’re a cheat. I don’t care, I’ll call you it to your face. You’re a thief.”
