Hot mic captures Viktor Hovland’s hilarious reaction to getting pooped on by a bird during The Open

The birds flying around Royal Liverpool didn’t seem to care Viktor Hovland was getting ready to hit a shot during the first round of the 2023 British Open.

Well, it was one seagull in particular. And the mics were fully on when Hovland realized that said seagull had ruined one of his much-ripped outfits (you can see the joke about that below) with an untimely drop.

You can hear Hovland exclaim, “I just got [expletive] on” as he stopped his pre-shot process and walked over to his caddie to get cleaned.

Here’s the moment (and WARNING: There’s some NSFW language in there):
