Wisconsin was lucky enough to have the services of Frank Kaminsky this season on its way to a Final Four run. He’s good at basketball, but what about golf?

Wisconsin had one of the best and most versatile big men in the nation in Frank Kaminsky during the team’s 2014-15 Final Four run that led them to a national title loss against Duke. The big man won college basketball’s Naismith Award, given to the best, and most valuable, player in the country.

It’s pretty safe to say that Kaminsky was a force to be reckoned with. Not too many centers can step out to the three-point line and make about 42 percent of their long-range jumpers. Kaminsky did just that while averaging 18.8 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game.

He is likely considered a top-20 pick and maybe a guy who could sneak into the lottery.

We all know just how good he is at basketball, but what about other sports like, let’s just say, golf? He might be a decent golfer, but dang, the guy needs some new clubs.

He was spotted on the golf course recently, using normal-sized clubs and he looked flat-out ridiculous. I mean, the pictures almost look photoshopped. Take a look for yourself.

Callaway Golf got some better angles with the big man’s clubs so it almost looks like he’s a normal-sized person with normal-sized clubs.

It’s pretty funny to see the seven-footer using clubs that us normal folk would be using and looking just silly with them. If what Callaway says is true and he has a good swing, then I’m impressed.

Not many things are more difficult than learning how to swing a golf club and perfecting it, let alone trying to do so with one that is about three sized too small. Luckily for Kaminsky, he will be rich enough in the next couple of months to the point where he can buy some new custom-sized clubs that actually fit his height so he looks like a regular human being instead of Paul Bunyan.

If you didn’t think Kaminsky looked like the overly-tall kid at a mini golf course using the smallest club possible when you first saw the picture, you’re lying to yourself.
