Greenkeeper sues golf club for £150K after 'lawnmower swinging accident' - Deadline News

A GREENKEEPER is suing one of the world’s oldest golf clubs for £150,000, claiming he was badly hurt after being told to cut the grass by swinging a Flymo on a rope.

Derek Bond alleges he had to cut grass on a steep slope at Peterhead Golf Club by swinging the 23kg (51lb) mower from side to side using a rope attached to the handle.

The 24-year-old says he fell down the slope and injured his leg so badly he needed hospital treatment and considerable time off work.
