During a live broadcast of The Open Championship, commentator Kevin Kisner found himself sharing the booth with an unexpected guest—a bat. The winged intruder swooped into the broadcast booth, sending Kisner into fits of laughter and creating a viral moment for golf fans worldwide.
The incident occurred as Kisner and his co-commentators were analysing the tournament. Suddenly, the bat fluttered into view, darting around the confined space. Kisner, known for his quick wit, couldn’t contain his amusement, quipping, "We’ve got a bat in the booth!" as he ducked out of the way.
Viewers were treated to a rare blend of sports commentary and wildlife antics, with the bat stealing the show for several minutes. Social media erupted with reactions, as fans praised Kisner’s lighthearted handling of the situation.
This isn’t the first time nature has interrupted live sports coverage, but Kisner’s genuine reaction made it one of the most memorable. The Open, already famed for its dramatic moments, now has another unforgettable highlight—courtesy of an uninvited bat.
