There's something special about arriving at the golf course early in the morning. The dew on the grass is still fresh, the air is cool, the greens play slower than you've ever seen them, and cars slide onto the greens in front of you. Wait, what?
Well, that's what happened Tuesday morning at Eagle Springs Golf Club in Friant, California.

In the early morning hours of Tuesday, January 16, the woman is said to have been traveling on Sky Harbor Road at Millerton Road. As is common in California's Great Central Valley, there was heavy fog in the area.
This situation appears to have made it difficult for the woman to see the stop sign. Well, that and her speed were also a factor.
She crashed through a stop sign and launched her car 40 feet above the golf course's eighth green. It's just a scene from a movie.
Fortunately, the intersection was safe and the woman suffered only minor injuries.
PGA Tour legend Johnny Miller calls every aspect of the course “From concept to completion” This course opened in 1990 and has been hailed as one of the best courses in California, and it is exactly what it says.
Of course, the Golden State is known for having some of the most beautiful golf courses in the world.
At the end of the CHP message on social media, they couldn't help themselves and added, “Oh, please mend all the divots… Golf etiquette!”
I don't care who you are, there's humor that tickles your fancy.
