Players tweet about Hawaiian missile alert

Hawaii residents and visitors received shocking mobile push alerts Saturday morning warning of an approaching ballistic missile, including those playing in this week’s Sony Open in Oahu. The mobile alert instructed people to seek shelter, but Hawaii’s Emergency Management Agency quickly sent out a tweet stating that the message was sent in error.

NO missile threat to Hawaii.

Understandably, many in the golf community – both in Hawaii and not – were on high alert for several minutes.
