GOLFERS may be hearing some strange noises during the upcoming US Open.

The legendary event will be held from Thursday, June 15 to Sunday, June 18 in Los Angeles, California.

The 123rd edition will be hosted by the magnificent Los Angeles Country Club.

And funnily enough, the venue is just down the street from the world-infamous Playboy Mansion.

According to Australian Golf Digest, that’s not the only interesting part that makes this year’s US Open stand out.

Golfers will have to find a way to concentrate while teeing off as they will be hearing bizarre screeches from Hugh Hefner‘s former crib.

That is because there is still a zoo consisted of monkeys, cockatoos, peacocks and a selection of other natural-born noisemakers.

Hefner sold the mansion to Daren Metropoulos shortly before his death in 2017 at the age of 91.

Metropoulos has since been using the former chateau for “corporate activities”.

The new owner bought the property for $100million (£79m) and promised to keep the zoo.

Metropoulos appears to have honoured his pledge as golfers claim they can still hear squeals, roars and groans coming from the property.

That could pose a problem for Rory McIlroy and other players when they face their tee shot on the par-5 14th hole this week.

Play is due to start at 12pm UK time on the opening two days and at 3pm during the weekend.
