Believe it or not, RUGBY GOLF is now a real thing

Most of us would consider rugby the best sport on the planet, but for some, golf might just be a near second. So why not combine the two? It's happened, and we first saw it a while back with a clip that went slightly viral, then Fox Sports did it with George Gregan, and now we have this.

The sporting craze is reportedly sweeping the USA and Europe, and believe it or not, there are 'official' rules, 15 of them. Starting with kicking from a tee, then out of hand on the fairway, you pass the ball once you're on the green, much the same as you would putt in regular golf.

World Rugby put this video together to explain, so if you're keen to try it out, give it a watch, make note of the way it is played, and we'll see you on the fairway.

    ...Another sport I'll suck at....

    I think everyone should have to stand 10 metres (ish) away from the 'golfer' and as soon as he picks up the ball it's your chance to absolutely level him before he makes the kick or pass... just to mix it up a bit..
