It is one of the largest online communities for sports fans across the world featuring unusual videos of international stars ranging from Fernando Torres and Cristiano Ronaldo to Lionel Messi.
Now a video of two St Andrews teenagers playing golf trick shots has gone viral on The Sport Bible Facebook page with more than 1.6 million hits so far.
Madras College pupils Keith Bowman and his friend Conor Maccallum, who are both keen golfers, took the video of themselves playing trick shots at the St Andrews Links Golf Academy last Saturday.
They posted it on Facebook and it proved to be very popular with their friends.
Just a couple of days later the pair were sitting in class at school and discovered that the video had been copied to The Sports Bible Facebook page which has millions of followers worldwide.
Keith, 15, who is in fourth year at Madras told The Courier: “We were shocked. In 20 minutes 200,000 people had seen this and it was going crazy! Now, just days later, the number of views has soared to 1.6 million.”
Keith said that both he and Conor were keen golfers. He plays off a handicap of one and Conor off a handicap of two.
Keith has been part of the Scottish golf academy performance squad since the age of 11.
Conor, 17, is a member of the Scottish development squad.
Steve North, Director of Instruction at the St Andrews Links Golf Academy, has been working with Keith and Conor for around eight years.
Both are members of the St Andrews Links Junior Golf Association, which is a golfing organisation open to children who go to school in St Andrews or live within the town boundaries.
Describing them as “really nice guys”, he said the teenagers had been working their way through the Scottish Golf Association programme and were doing “very well”.
He said: “I became aware of the video before I went home on Wednesday evening. A colleague mentioned it to me as I left the building and it had 300,000 or 400,000 hits. When I eventually looked at it for myself at around 9pm it had 1.4m hits and was rising.”
He added: “It’s a bit of fun and not something we teach at the golf academy! I won’t ask how many takes it took them to film the video but it takes skill none-the-less!”
