Oosthuizen is a difficult name to spell. Louis is not. But it’s the given name, not the surname that has caused comical moments recently for the former Open champion. Last week, Oosthuizen’s parking spot at The Players Championship was reserved for “Larry.”

Oosthuizen tweeted the above photo, poking fun at himself. This week, Oosthuizen’s tour bag showcased his alter ego. Which may have been the product of a Charl Schwartzel prank.
