| My worst hole ever was at the final round of the Future Masters in 2001, #4 I think. Par 5, maybe 520 yards, slight dogleg right, then cuts sharply to the left about 100 yards from the hole. Easy hole if you don't do anything stupid.
1. Driver, skank chili dip popup to the right, one of the worst shots I've ever hit, hits a tree about 50 hards from the hole, goes into a hazard I didn't even know existed.
2. Penalty
3. Re-tee, pull-hook left into the woods.
4. No shot back to the fairway, play up another fairway.
5. Great 6-iron over trees to 30 feet or so.
6. Putt
7. Putt
8. Putt
I ended up finishing eagle-birdie with a 60 or 70-footer on 18 to shoot 72 on the day. I was five over for the tournament...and six over par on the hole for three rounds, double-bogey-triple. |
