Streakers on the green

A TRIO of streakers interrupted a ladies’ golf tournament in Galway yesterday before making their getaway on bicycles.

The men, in their mid-twenties, climbed naked over the wall of the Galway Golf Club in Salthill. After making a dash to the sixth green, they rolled around before being chased off by club officials.

“They were harmless and they just saw an opportunity for a laugh. The head referee for the Irish Ladies’ Golfing Union was close by and she took it in good spirits,” club secretary manager Pádraic Fahy said.
