Anyone who has flown understands the anxiety of wondering whether your luggage might be lost, but Collin Morikawa experienced that on a much more dramatic level when he was traveling on Sunday.
Morikawa was on a flight waiting to take off when he saw his golf clubs fall off of a luggage cart and onto the tarmac. The two-time major champion watched helplessly as his clubs sat on the ground. He tweeted a photo of the near disaster.
Clubs fell out of the luggage cart and sat there for a few min with no one in sight. Let’s just say I was freaking out on the inside. Here we come #playoffs pic.twitter.com/0Rwde5sHSV

Fortunately, a vehicle did not come by and run the clubs over. Morikawa tweeted an update a few hours later showing that there was a happy resolution.
