Video: Sergio Hits Decent Shot Then Smashes Microphone Anyway. Deafens Veteran Sound Man

Sergio does a Derek Chizora impression on a tee box microphone at the US Open, making mince meat of it.

Veteran TV sound producer Marty Bunkum sitting in a trailer two miles away with a pair of headphones on and just two weeks short of retirement, didn’t fare so well.

The impact of Sergio’s iron on the microphone caused a sharp sound wave measuring 225 decibels; instantly deafening Bunkum.  There is a silver lining however; Sergio made a bogey and it looks like Marty Bunkum will have a quiet retirement. Very quiet!
