With Andrew Johnston enjoying an excellent Open at Royal Troon, commentator Richard Boxall recalled his bizarre antics on the practice range ahead of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational in Ohio earlier this month.

Johnston lived up to his nickname of "Beef" and was happy to interrupt his usual preparations for a tournament round when he was challenged to hit a cheeseburger off the tee.

The 145th Open

The results were hilarious, as was his interview with Claude Harmon III at the Sky Cart as they reflected on his burger-smashing antics on the range.

Johnston's popularity has soared this season and he has firmly established himself as one of the biggest and brightest characters on the European Tour, while he has also attracted a huge following in the United States as vast crowds followed him around at Oakmont during last month's US Open.

But it shouldn't be overlooked that Johnston is also a world-class player, proving his talent with a brilliant maiden European Tour victory on a brutally-tough Valderrama course at the Open de Espana.

The 27-year-old, who is currently 26th in the Race to Dubai standings, also earned his third top-10 finish of the season at the flagship BMW PGA Championship.
