Leona Maguire's golf clubs went missing just days before a major championship after taking a flight from Dublin Airport to Geneva.
Thankfully, she has since tweeted that they have been found and arrangements are being made to get them back to her.
But her preparation for the Evian Championship was thrown into turmoil as a result, with the tournament set to begin in just three days time.
The 27-year-old took to Twitter this morning to plead with the Dublin Airport Authority to find her belongings so she can begin preparing for one of the biggest weeks on the LPGA Tour calendar.

"Really need help from someone at Dublin Airport or DAA," her Tweet begins.
"Flew from Dublin to Geneva yesterday direct and somehow my golf bag has gone missing between check-in and take-off."
"FlySWISS & Swissport News have no idea where it is. Need it urgently for EvianChamp major this week."
In a follow up tweet, the one-time winner on the LPGA Tour claimed that her bag isn't on the Swiss Airlines system, meaning it is even more difficult to locate.
"Airtags are no help because Swiss Airlines can’t locate the bag in their system," said the 27-year old.
34 minutes after Maguire posted the two tweets above, Dublin Airport replied claiming that there was nothing that they could do to help, and that the issue could only be resolved by the airline.
"Very sorry to hear this, Leona," Dublin Airports tweet begins.
"Hopefully your airline is able to advise you soon on the whereabouts of your clubs."
"We do not have access to information regarding baggage as this function is looked after entirely by airlines and their handling partners."
Unsurprisingly, many feel as though the airport authorities should be able to do more to help the Irish sports star. Taking to Twitter, a number of people expressed their dissatisfaction at the airport's handling of the situation.
"Nice offload there Dublin Airport, try harder to help this sportsperson," said John.
Aodhán wrote, "You could at least offer to see what you can do. Not a great look. Potential for some good press if it ends well and you have offered to help."
"Simply not good enough. They got lost between Check In and Take Off so clearly an issue on your behalf and nobody else," claimed Darragh.
Leona's situation is just the latest in a long line of Dublin Airport debacles to make the news this summer. With the army getting involved to speed up queuing times, dozens of flights being cancelled daily and reports of over 500 bags being lost daily, it's been a bad summer for the airport.
But putting the call out on social media helped to resolve the situation as evidenced by her latest tweet.
Last year she finished 6th at the Evian Championship and will be hoping to go close this year as well.
