Golf club would like to reunite ladies underwear and shoes found on course with rightful owner

A pair of abandoned knickers suggests someone scored a birdie at Cromwell Golf Course in New Zealand on New Year's eve. The turquoise mesh knickers were found next to some bushes about 100m from the sixth green, golf director Peter Smith said.

A pair of white platform sandals, presumed to belong to the same person, were found on the green. A greenkeeper found the wantonly discarded items when he went around the course to put flags in the holes about 6.30am on Thursday.



"He put them in a carrier bag, came back in and said, I've got something to show you, you won't believe it," Smith said. To Smith's knowledge, it was the first time clothes had been found on the golf course. He said the clothes must have been discarded between 8.30pm on New Year's eve and 6.30am the following day, as inspections took place at those times.

The clothes may belong to a patron from nearby Golden Gate bar and restaurant or the Top Ten Holiday Park, Smith said. The underwear and shoes have been advertised as lost in a post on the golf club's Facebook page, adding that the clothing could be reclaimed from the course golf shop.

I see pieces of clothing laying around a lot, while walking in my neighborhood. Gloves, I can understand, but how does one lose socks underwear, and the pair of jeans I saw a few days ago. This is in Canada, in winter, folks.
