A professional female golfer from Liverpool says she can "see the funny side" after a video of an amateur player "mansplaining" to her about her swing went viral.
In the clip, Georgia Ball - who regularly shares instructional videos on her account - is seen practising her swing at a driving range - when she was interrupted by a man, who tries to give her advice.
The TikTok video has since had more than 11 million views and almost 27,000 comments, with many social media users mocking the man for "mansplaining".
Asked by Sky Sports how she felt during the interaction, Ball said: "It was an awkward conversation at the time but I was just concentrating on what I was doing... I am glad I can look back on it now and see the funny side to it."
When asked if she was ever tempted to put the man in his place, she said: "To be honest, I am a humble person, it is not in me to call him out or say I am a PGA pro, it is just not in me to do that."
