Golfer Lydia Ko autographs ultra-luxe Richard Mille watch
If you think a bag of chips is the weirdest thing to be autographed, how about a luxury watch?
Lydia Ko, currently the world's number one professional woman golfer, was given an ultra-expensive Richard Mille watch to autograph during her recent trip to Singapore.
In a TikTok video shared by user Chamhuii, Ko appeared awestruck by the encounter, after she was handed the luxury watch to sign by a young boy. "This is the most expensive thing I have ever signed," she said.
Chamhuii clarified in the comments that the luxury watch belongs to the boy's father, whom she said had willingly offered it to his child for the purpose.
