Richard Heathcote/Getty ImagesA Florida man has been accused of beating up a fellow golfer over slow play. Unlike the other recent viral golf fight, this guy is not a former NHL enforcer.
The incident happened at a golf course in Kissimmee, Florida. It ended in the arrest of Jason Hughes who told Osceola County Sheriff's Office deputies that he was upset with the victim's pace of play. Of course, this is certainly reminding all of us of the recent fight that went viral on a Canadian golf course where a former NHL enforcer beat up a guy and threw him all over the course while calling out his punches with a loud and proud, "bang!" each time. Sounds like it was a pretty similar situation with the golfers exchanging words on the course before it took a violent turn.

Reports say that Hughes attacked the man unprovoked and punched the victim repeatedly in the face before the men were separated by their playing partners. Hughes and his partner exited the course before deputies arrived on scene, per FOX 35 Orlando.
The victim ended up refusing a ride to the hospital via an ambulance and had a friend drive him instead. Law enforcement was able to track Hughes down and they were able to identify him as the suspect. He has since been booked into the Osceola County Jail and was charged with aggravated battery causing bodily harm.
It's unclear when he'll appear in court.
