It's not just Lindsey Vonn's red wellingtons making a splash at the President's Cup - a sneaky squirrel has stolen the show at Muirfield Village.
Sammy
the squirrel has become the U.S. team's mascot after co-captain Davis
Love III took a shining to him during a rain delay yesterday.
And
the furry critter has been doing the rounds, with Olympic skier Lindsey
Vonn sneakily placing it on boyfriend Tiger Woods' shoulder in a funny
prank.
Nuts: Lindsey Vonn laughs after putting a squirrel on Tiger Woods' shoulder at the Presidents Cup
Friendly: Tiger Woods warmed up to the idea of
carrying a real squirrel on his neck during the Day One Four-Ball
Matches at Muirfield Village Golf Club
Video footage captured
the moment Vonn pulled the squirrel out of Love III's trouser pocket
before surreptitiously placing it on 37-year-old Woods' neck.
Woods,
who was focused on the golfers still on the green, initially brushed
his shoulder until he realized what was sitting on him.
The world number one appeared rattled at first, before smiling broadly, to the delight of his 28-year-old girlfriend.
Before heading to Minnesota today, Vonn tweeted to Love: 'Keep the squirrel happy until I get back tomorrow. :)'
Animal lover: David Love III, far left, found
the squirrel earlier in the day and kept it in his pocket before handing
it to Lindsey Vonn beside him
Sneaky: Davis Love III handed 'Sammy the
squirrel' to Lindsey Vonn before she secretly placed it on her boyfriend
Tiger Woods' shoulder
Funny: Lindsey Vonn thought it would be fun to put a live squirrel on her boyfriend's shoulder at the Presidents Cup
Engrossed: Tiger Woods was so focused on the
action, he didn't initially notice that girlfriend Lindsey Vonn put a
squirrel on his arm
Vonn made quite an impression at the golf tournament yesterday.
Pairing
her red boots with snug white denim jeans and a navy blue V-neck
T-shirt, the snow siren was the center of attention on the green, but
she pretended to not notice.
For
hours she watched as her boyfriend of one year participated in the
Four-Ball matches, which began 90 minutes late due to rain.
The gold medal winner said when she met Woods, who is divorced from Swedish beauty Elin Nordegren, they hit it off.
'We immediately clicked, you know? It was just one of those things,' she told Vogue in August.
'Tiger's fame is obviously in the extreme, the amount of scrutiny that he's constantly under.
'But
that's the thing: It all comes back to being happy. It doesn't really
matter what anyone else thinks; do what you love to do and be happy and
that's it.'
