Man swims in flooded Sydney golf course after heavy rain

An Australian man took a dive into a flooded golf course on Sydney’s northern beaches as heavy rains and thunderstorms lashed coastal communities.

Craig Finniss soaked up the opportunity by swimming a lap of the waterlogged course at Palm Beach.

Residents in some nearby suburbs were ordered to evacuate their homes due to flash flooding, as 180mm of rain hit some parts of Sydney over the weekend, according to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology.
