Zion Williamson Swung the Head Right Off a Golf Club

How strong is Zion? This strong.

Zion Williamson might be too big and strong for the golf course. 

The Pelicans held a golf outing on Friday for sponsors and season ticket holders, and it became immediately clear which players had previous golf experience. Rookie Jaxson Hayes had a swing that would make even Happy Gilmore blush, while Frank Jackson looked like he was ready to take $100 off anybody in a skins game. 

Interesting approach from @hayes_jaxson, meanwhile how smooth is @FWJackson15? 😦 pic.twitter.com/fK0otsHGRC

But what everyone really wants to know is how top draft pick Zion Williamson looked on the course. The answer: not bad. His swing was reasonably fluid, with a nice clean takeaway and good rotation in his hips. There’s just one problem. He’s such a mountain of a man that he snapped the club with a single swing.

The head of the club was eventually found some distance away. 

“He literally broke the club!”

Grown. Man. Strength. 💪@Zionwilliamson pic.twitter.com/uRd3cV6WX6

There’s definitely potential there, though. Just get Zion some clubs with reinforced shafts and watch him start bombing 400-yard drives.
