Phelps throws club at St Andrews

Olympic swimming legend Michael Phelps was spotted tossing his driver at St Andrews in a one-armed-butterfly motion during filming of The Haney Project on the Golf Channel.

The 18-time Olympic gold medallist, who has quit swimming to spend more time playing golf, is seen to jump off his left leg while slinging the club over his head following a bad drive in front of the cameras.

His teacher Hank Haney was not impressed: “That wasn’t even a good attempt at being mad.”

While we certainly don’t condone this sort of behaviour, Haney is right, it was a rather lame effort when you consider the one from Sergio Garcia.
