We have all likely played through some tough conditions on the golf course. Whether that be extreme heat, wind gusts, torrential rain, or freezing temperatures.

But yesterday, Mark Gardner, a high school math teacher from Hawaii, played through the be all end all of tough conditions.

A missile strike warning.

By now you’ve likely heard of the colossal mistake made by Hawaii in sending out an errant warning to everyone on the islands. A mistake that was officially corrected for 38 minutes.

While some were ducking into basements or under tables or even into bathtubs for safety, Mr. Gardner simply continued his round of golf.

Thankfully, his daughter, Alohi, shared video of her father on the course.

“I just parred the last hole and I just hit the shishnik out of my ball. So I love you all, but I’m playing golf if it’s the last thing that I’m gonna do.”

Amen to that, Mr. Gardner.
