One of Eddie Pepperell's biggest fans went to great lengths to show his appreciation of the Englishman's latest tweet that claimed he was trialing a new 48-inch driver ahead of this week's DP World Tour Championship.
Pepperell, fair to say regarded as the king of golf Twitter, posted "I'm trialing a 48" driver this week so if you're the owner of any property at Jumeirah board it up."
I’m trialing a 48” driver this week so if you’re the owner of any property at Jumeirah board it up.

While we are fairly certain the World No.125 is joking about testing out a lengthened driver shaft this week, one of Pepperell's fans - by the name of @Nooneio80 on Twitter - went along with it and made a lot of people laugh in the process.

So much so, Nooneio's reponse caught the attention of Thomas Pieters, who tweeted he now deserves a round of golf with Pepperell for his efforts.
Hahaha you should at least get a round of golf with Eddie for that effort

Seriously, thanks from all us players for being so accommodative. If I know one thing, it’s that giving up your course for some clown to shoot +10 this week and win £10k is an honourable thing.

Pepperell heads into the European Tour's season finale this week following some indifferent form, but he did show signs of a resurgence recently with consecutive top-10 finishes at the Scottish Open and BMW PGA Championship.
