ESPN Top 10 All Time Golf Shots, Pt 2

[tpain2345]

Did anyone else notice the bottom line that said Both would sign a 6 year deal with the Raptors.. then Dirk got fined for kicking the ball after losing to the Heat lol

[dnote321]

john anderson from wipeout!!!:) (0:42)

[iloveairfrance]

Not Double Eagle... ALBATROSS!!!!!!!! Shit! xD

[Flycrest]

Six Six SIx!!!!!! Those women are in a possesed kitchen

[wiithepeople2]

1:01 oh my god THIS VIDEO IS POSSESSED BY THE DEVIL!!

[jonathanelbuenaonda]

its more likely to get a hole in one than an double eagle

[TofurkeyMan]

double eagle is 3 under. Also known as an Albatross

[chilibro]

is a double eagle 2 or 3 under?

[cpaterson0988]

@chilibro 3 under

[hman202934]

@chilibro 3 do the math birdie = 1 eagle = 2 and "double" eagle = ???

[Soakedboy]

@hman202934 Don't mean to rant....but technically according to the definition of "double"....a double eagle would be 4 under >.<

[Vertigo2903]

I think Sarazen is #1

[ksanchac]

Under the pressure of a Major on the line, Tway's bunker shot was a great one....but not impossible or as unheard of as some say....just two pairs in front of him, Payne Stewart holed his second shot from the same bunker on the 18th from nearly an identical position. Somehow this piece of history never gets repeated...

[DrMeh3]

lol ben hogan used a 1 iron?

[mperry60]

Ben Hogan is eternal!

[moellerersej]

Chuck norris did 17 strokes in 18 holes

[bubbawatsonisbeast]

I live near merion, and i went there once and i saw the plaque of where he hit that exact shot, also, the famous picture is in the clubhouse. At the plaque, you can see lots of divots near it of other golfers dropping balls there and trying to hit shots onto the green. Breathtaking

[skbroker]

tway makes a bunker shot to win and its the greatest shot ever and when korean birdie kim makes the same shot to win its robbery. what bias.

[Austin101123]

the rarest score in golf is really a hole in one on a par 5... only happened once

[larrybud]

@Austin101123 I'm sorry, but it's never happened. Happened only once on a par *4*.

[Austin101123]

@larrybud nope... its happened MANY of times on a par 4

[woodybarn66]

@larrybud it has its happened at least twice, one with a 3 iron.

[DonWon313]

I swear greg norman must have 20 2nd place finishes in majors

[daiz8]

Where are the woman?

[jfpga]

In the kitchen.

[yoch08]

@daiz8 in the kitchen hahahahahaha

[lukinator007]

@daiz8 in my pants

[Theoneputter]

this is biased towards shots to win and shots from all time greats

[wesleysuperman]

you forget the pressure it takes to make that winning shot.

[smallerthantall001]

and these people are all time greats because they hit shots like these...

[T42Steel]

I think this list is a little biased towards shots that were used to win.

[Golf4life2008]

I caddy at Inverness. Its crazy seeing this video of Bob Tway. That green is sloped unbelievably. If that ball would have missed the hole it would have been like 40 feet away with a huge breaker coming back! Tway got soo lucky!

[Artemetra]

That's a good piece of info, Golf4life. You can't see the slope of these greens on TV very well. But anyone who has golfed knows that horrible feeling of watching it roll, roll, roll down a hill... Ugh. He was lucky, but executed perfectly, too.

[Loumogou]

its not him its him

[hietanbs]

Gene Sarazen's should have been way higher.

[1lickLemons247]

can someone help me please

i hit my irons and 3 wood beautifuly but the driver i cant stop slicing it i really need to know how to sort it out because its wrecking my golf i hit a 3 wood off the tee now but im not slicing that so how come i am my driver??

thanks....

pm me ...

[mikedatyke]

i am 15 yrs old,but play off a handicap of 7.i used to have ur exact problem so don't worry aboutit too much. it may be just a phase ur going thru,im not sure. so my advice is to tee it higher off the ground and have it slighter further 4ward in ur stance. sweep the ball off the tee and extendur follow thru all the way,making sure u roll ur hands as u just about to make impact. finally as a result u may hit it higher at first,or just spoon it up.

[aaronthejuggler]

drivers tend to slice more, its better to tee of with a 3 wood and hit it shorter than a driver, at least your going straight and out of trouble. your probably slicing it because:

Your not squaring the club face

Not going far back enough of your back swing

Just hit your 3 wood and work on your driver until you can straighten things out.

[rob6644]

try to place the ball more in the middle of your stance

[hewdaddy79]

choke down on it, it works

[19CCR91]

its hand postion, tilt and wrist angle

[13gator31]

do you have matching driver and 3 wood? like styles. If not different shafts can do that

[AussieJesus16]

when setting up ur stance, think of your swing.

r u swaying when u take the club back? this is very common for golfers, it causes the body to lean ford when coming to impact, causing the club face to bend.

hope this helps.

c a pro if this problem continues

- Alex

handicap 4 ;-)

[SageOftheSubway]

I had the same problem until a coach pointed out that I was swaying backwards on my backswing and then forward on the swing, meaning that I wasn't staying centered.

When you do that - sway forward - your club face is no longer square to the ball, thus the slice.

In other words, stay centered with your body.

[irltractor]

What flex is the shaft in your driver. A stiff shaft may be preventing you from closing the clubface in time for impact. Also consider cutting down your driver half an inch to aid accuracy

[weerdo08]

Hogans doesnt deserve to be there

[Banger82]

Other than Dale Earnhardt having the worst luck in the Daytona 500, nobody had worse luck in majors on American soil than Greg Norman.

[Megacliff]

666

[miggy25]

Greg Norman DEFINATELY had the killer instinct....he stands as a shining example of how really fortunate you have to be in order to win a golf tournament....he did let some leads slip on Sunday, but sometimes players pulled off shots to beat him (Tway in 86, Mize in 87, Gamez at Bay Hill, Frost at Honda, etc.) that they have never hit before and will never hit again

[jakemarsh123]

Sad twats

[BBCater]

Greg Norman was an EXCELLENT golfer who simply lacked the competitive killer element. Virtually every time he needed to summon something to put a tournament away, he left the door open. Self doubt is the worst companion on the golf-course. It's an impossible game to begin with. Imagine the audacity of thinking you can swing a 36 inch stick with a bent head at a ball that is less than two inches in diameter and get it into a 4" hole 350 yards away in 4 shots.

[wisgolfer101]

BBCater WELL PUT

[floflwaffle]

Poor Greg Norman probably one of the most underated players I think. He was so unlucky when it came to the majors definatley should have won more than the 2 he did.

[tedwilli9]

@floflwaffle How could he be underrated? He was number 1 for so long...and only won 2 majors! If anything, he was OVERRATED, for not living up to expectations.

[whammydoom]

Tigers bad knee US Open win story will NEVER touch Ben Hogans comeback story, that takes REAL guts to do what Hogan did.

[dandydude123xyz]

i agree

[floflwaffle]

Tiger was without doubt in pain but Ben Hogan's win conquers every other not just because of his legs but it was a cinderella story of talent, tragedy, adversity, hope and over whelming odds to a degree which to this day has never been matched the only one that comes close is Francis Ouimet's U.S Open win back at the begging on the 20th century.

[whammydoom]

how was Ben still in that much pain atfer 16 MONTHS of recovery time?

[floflwaffle]

Try being in a car accident and then you'll know lol jokes. I didn't say he was in pain I said Tiger was. Ben probably was in some degree of pain I don't know how much. I saw the famous picture of him today at the course I was playing at.

[Mikey300]

In the 1949 head-on crash with the bus, Hogan's pelvis was smashed and both legs were broken. To prevent blood clots developing in the damaged legs from migrating to the lungs, where they would produce a fatal pulmonary embolism, doctors reportedly tied off several large veins, severely restricting blood circulation in Hogan's legs. It seems likely that the poor circulation prevented proper nourishment of the leg muscles leading to all sorts of cramping and pain.

[Siminimis]

definitely some amazing shots in that video, dunno if i agree with espn's top 10, someday when im not lazy, ill post one to see what people think

[renownpete]

fuckin amazing no europeans, seve should be on this twice!

[emncaity]

Agreed. No women, either.

[ruscopcoltrain]

#10 was Constantino Rocca, and Italian.

[MicrowavedHamster]

His shots seem too lose for good control.

[woodybarn66]

who's hi pescan?

[itsmekitg]

cool

[tillman40]

36 hole playoff!! Holy Cow...they were a tougher generation...lol

[Jablesnbits]

or they were a generation that didnt have to deal with television time slots.

[tillman40]

The media was rallying around for the Woods/Mediate open to have a 4 hole playoff..instead it was the best 19 holes of golf I've seen played in a while...

[SmallDannyJW]

The general consensus in Britain at least was that although the 19 hole playoff did happen to provide some great golf, sadly this will probably now justify the USGA continuing to use this format. A four hole playoff after Tiger holed that putt on sunday would have been brilliant. In golf we should want to see a close match, we should want the excitment of a playoff but with the US Open there is always an underlying feeling that it would be nice to finish on Sunday.

[stevenb53092]

Thanks for this top 10 set bro!

[moppi1080]

greg norman the best second place ever!

you should have won the masters at least once

[elliotejo]

wat a shot!!

[peppero2]

thanks for posting this! :)
