  • what was TheNYgolfer's comment?

  • Simple- just shank aiming left. That was really a shank though. Think about it- will the ball ALWAYS turn out the same hitting such a diverse part of the club(hosel). Really- you are lucky if you get that and not hit in the face.

  • hes human

  • I'll agree...100% shankapontamus here. but viewers gotta know that the commentators gotta make a comment to every bad shot that is hit on tv especially one of this magnitude. but nick is beefing this shot up like tiger bowed his wrist like dustin johnson or something which is def not the case. 9 out of 10 times, Tiger hits this ball the way he wants to and of course this being the one that isn't what he intended.

  • his swing is still better than mine. probably even went further than mines if i were to hit the same iron. HAHAHA!

  • 0:07 "stay strong jimmy!!!!" lol i don't know why i found that hilarious....

  • pimp.

  • 0:38 what the fuck does faldo say

  • @fwayndo1 he says: Wubby dubby bubby, which means squashed bananas in afrikaans

  • Is this real life?

  • ha ha Tiger blocked it. Damn those blades!

  • A shank is when the ball makes contact with the hosel!!!! This causes it to fly sharply right.

  • His shanks look better then by best shots.

  • (cont) even Tiger hits shanks :-) Those shots are the most embarrasing!

  • Sorry for Tiger but I'm glad to see That

  • A shank is any time the ball makes contact with the shaft/hosel of the club you idiots; it is NOT a relative term. NYgolfer if you think Faldo doesn't know what a shank is you're smoking crack.

  • @beseriousplease that was a fucking sank

  • @Xdawgs1118 - Clearly. I was responding to the claim that 'shank' is a relative term, which it is not.

  • @beseriousplease anyone that knows golf knows that this was not a shank. If I could hit a ball with that trajectory and with the little bid of draw that this shot had I'll let sir faldo call it a shank all day long. That ball went fore right because it ricochet off the tree limb.

  • @TheNYgolfer - lol no, and no, and another no. 1- Its was a shank. 2- it was fading/slicing, not drawing, 3- He said fore-right because he shanked it, and shanked shots typically go right because of the hosel making contact with the left-side of the ball, which sends it right immediately with a clockwise spin. I hope you're trolling me, at least then you wouldn't be retarded :)

  • @beseriousplease u like faldo need to learn golf ball aerodynamics *Lol*

  • @TheNYgolfer - Yep, six-time major champion Nick Faldo needs to learn golf-ball aerodynamics. You're the guy calling a left-to-right ball movement from a right-handed player a draw... keep responding, I'm having fun making you look stupid.

  • You wouldn't think Tiger would have to yell "Fore" in tournament play too often - at least not last decade.

  • When I shank it looks more like Kevin Costner's shank in Tin Cup. 85 degrees right and about 10 yards forward.

  • yous are all idiots nick faldo is right its a complete shank end of

  • what if he didnt say fore, he said FIVE!

  • @bumblebee051985 yeah, ik what you mean. in some people's books that would've been a great shot. lol

  • press 1 for weird grunting noise!!!

  • how the heck can that be a shank if it still rose up in the air

  • looks like he was trying to draw it and came outside the line. prolly hit the inside of the club and not the hozzle so it wasn't really a complete shank.

  • to everybody saying tht thts not a shank:

    thts not a shank for you, b/c you probably suck, thts a tiger shank. terrible for tiger, probably better than 90% of the contact you ever make though

  • the only shank i care about is in the fucking oven... i love lamb.

  • dats a borderline shank, still not a SHANK!

  • shut up faldo. that's not a shank. it was a real bad block but that club did not hit the hozel. i'm a 7 handicap but i sure as hell know what that noise sounds like. lol.

  • semi-shanks

    

  • @bumblebee051985 well when you shank it you hit the hossle.

  • Can he hit it anymore sideways??? See Happy Gilmore for a lesson, he's seen everyone else..............

  • SHANK!

  • hardly a shank at all, which would have gone dead to rights "right," he just pushed it way out right but it still hooked back in left. Faldo's a dipshit announcer

  • ...his wrist is flat..not arched.

  • tigers like 'shit, what do i shout again?'

  • it happens to me every now and then, its a semi shank.

  • "holy, holy i gotta hold my tounge quick."

  • best shank ive ever seen

  • this is not a shank, its a shitty shot

  • i think that shot needed some cialis to get it straight

  • about a half shank it has more loft than a full one full shanks head off horizontal in a sickening thud

  • Comment removed

  • See with the way tiger swings though, this doesn't surprise me. So much torque and speed and movement, it's bound to happen the odd time. But Fred Couples or Ernie Els hitting a shank would really surprise me. With the tempo they have they make it seem impossible. (I'M NOT SAYING COUPLES OR ELS ARE BETTER THEN TIGER....I'm just saying they swing so smooth there is less room for error)

  • If you pay attention to where the green is here... this is without a doubt, a shank.

  • That shank went farther than my drive

  • haha he didnt know what to say after he hit it. he was like shit what number do i yell,i forgot! :)

  • looks better than my purest shot ever

  • even his shanks look good

  • Faldo had to walk out on the 18th green the next day and suck this guys cock in penance for commenting on a bad shot. NOT ANYMORE THOUGH!!!!

  • I have to agree with faldo, I don't know why these guys who are so athletic don't simplify things and take advantage of it - keep the clubhead square all the way through the impact zone. why does he want to fan it open and dip his head and have to come back to the right point of impact. All of that makes it harder to do what he needs to do, and as he gets older, it's going to be harder and harder to control all of that well.

  • @daw162 the head dipping is a compression into the ground, a trademark of ALL good ballstrikers. Even Faldo does it. They used to call it the Snead Squat.

  • @dschultz6072 Thanks for the heads up. It's never been something I could control, and I always assumed on my fat shots, it was because I was dipping too much. Never came up with my pro, though, he's always got something else to chip away at. I just noticed tiger's squat is a lot more pronounced, or seems to be, than when he was younger.

    Now at least I know not to worry so much about exact head control making a move toward the ball! thanks!

  • @daw162

    Very true... I just think that he's trying to change his swing to mach his "age" and that is why he is on his third change!

  • anyone happen to catch the name of the tournament HAHAHA

  • I just love the natural response...."ooohh...he shanked it!!"

  • you guys hear BE STRONG JIMMY!

  • playing with the squirrels 

  • What this video doesn't show is the Dude that whistled in his back swing, just saying. I was there

  • faldo is such a little shit, i love watching tiger kick his ass in the british open over and over again

  • he shanks it, but it still goes about 250 yards, wish i could do that

  • ahaha its a 300 yd shank.....

  • shank

  • Semi-shank. Ball goes up, but miles straight(ish) right and obviously short. I excel at this shot...

  • Faldo is a douche. Been watching golf for the last 15yrs and I can tell you I' ve seen Faldo hit a cold shank or two.

  • @icon636 Faldo is the best anouncer out there. Come on, Faldo never said he never shanked one or two, he said Tiger shanked that one...which he did.

  • not a shank

  • シャンクシャンク郎

  • I believe he hit the train.

  • American prick!

  • "shank" is a relative term. if anyone who is commenting on this video hit this particular shot, it wouldnt necessarily be a shank but just a bad shot. when the greatest player of all time hits this shot...ITS A FUCKING SHANK!!!

  • @adamsbeer SHANK-to hit (a golf ball) with the base of the shaft of a club just ABOVE the club head, causing the ball to go off SHARPLY to the right (for a right handed golfer).

    I did not find a separate definition of SHANK for the number one player in the world . Shank is a "relative term" like being pregnant is a RELATIVE TERM!!!! LoL

  • @TheNYgolfer that ball was going sharply right you fucking retard. go back to tossing your boyfriend's salad mr golfer lol!!!

  • @adamsbeer no that was a shank for anyone he wasent even trying to go over the tree

  • that was a shank and not a toe?

  • his shanks are my great shots

  • @LeftyLP80 absolutely xD also for me hehehe

  • his grip is wrong, needs me to give him a lesson

  • Wish I could shank like that! Thinks that sir faldo needs to look up the definition of "shank". Faldo is a classic example of the expression "ignorance is bliss", which in golf can be a good thing sometimes. He knows what works for him in his golf game but he just stinks at analyzing other golfers swing. If these Television networks were at all interested in hiring knowledgeable people they would look at teachers like Lynn Blake and Brian Manzella.. Knowledge of THE GOLFING MACHINE is a must

  • @TheNYgolfer maybe you should look it up? shanks don't always squirt sideways, depends how bad it is. If you only just shank it it looks like that. If Tiger sliced it the flight would be different the speed he hits it.

  • @iFreak81

    Check your English. I can't make heads or tails out of what you said.

    • SHANK (verb)

    1. hit (a golf ball) with the heel of a club, causing the ball to veer sharply in the wrong direction

    Listen to faldo describe how Tiger shanked it.That was the part that made me laugh and the reason for writing my previous post..Any golfer who knows golf knows that was not a shank.The ball actually starts off drawing right to left then hit's a tree and squirts right.Shanks to not draw then slice.

  • @TheNYgolfer my post wasn't worded well no, but, I have hit shanks that look just like that, that look almost like a slice (not on the course usually with strange conditions on a driving range so I lose balance).

    From what I see the ball in this clip moves left to right in the air not right to left, so could be due to hitting the heel of the club.

    It looks more like a shank than a push-slice to me.

  • @TheNYgolfer And how many Masters did Blake and Manzella win? Think I'll take Sir Nick's word on it.

  • @TheNYgolfer Yes, I'm sure you are right. Nick Faldo, being a former professional, and winning several majors, would not be the best person for the job. Any good pro will tel you that the swing is relative to the player. He analyzes according to the swing that player has. He knows 10x more then you ever will.

  • @TofurkeyMan i think you mean 1,000,000x more!

  • @TheNYgolfer you are chatting crap mate

  • @TheNYgolfer i know huh

  • @TheNYgolfer Faldo's a great analyst, and was the best player of his generation

  • @TheNYgolfer must be tigers gay lover!

  • anybody else notice the guy saying "BE STRONG JIMMY!"

  • that wasn't a shank. it was a severe slice.

  • Wish my shanks had that ball flight...

  • @paulatlongdotcom I wish my shanks went that far hahaha

  • There's a stripper hanging out in the trees

  • definitely not a shank. to shank the ball you have to hit it with the hosel (where the clubhead goes over into the shaft). if you hit it with the hosel, the ball goes straight right (about 45 to 60 degrees) in a flat curve to the right.

    this mishit looks like a bad downswing pushed to the right with a slightly opened club face.

  • @ulli0011 fuck off with your golf science, it's a good shank coz he's a pro.

  • definitely not a shank. to shank it you have to hit it with the hosel (where the clubhead goes over into the shaft). if you hit it with the hosel, the ball goes straight right (about 45 to 60 degrees) in a flat curve to the right.

    this mishit looks like a bad downswing pushed to the right with a slightly opened club face.

  • How do you tell your freinds tiger woods shanked and hit you in the head with a golf ball?

  • nick flado's reaction never gets old haha

  • not a shank...justs looks like a mishit...a shank goes sideways not forward when you hit the ball with the hosel of the club.......

  • @TheBigezee77 i wouldnt know

  • check out our golf skills and tunes

  • I bet the crowd was running after that ball like a home run hit

  • shank is a relative term, for the people commenting on this video it would be a great shot. When your name is tiger , its a fucking shank!

  • my friend (whose a solid ballstriker) pulls this all the time and we have now coined the term tiger shank for a ball that looks like a shank but is better than anything that i could ever hit

  • i'd be happy with that

  • Hozel rocket

  • you've gone from open to shut, and then he (?) with the club face open

  • I bet that was the first time he had to yell fore since he was a kid.

  • He skanked it. Holy, holy, gotta hold my tongue quick :)

  • Hell, my shanks barely get off the ground. Best shank I've seen. At least he got some distance out of it.

  • Oh he shanks it, I gotta hold my toung quick. Nick Faldo is whats funny about this clip. "presenting the shank to the ball" WTF!

  • 1:11 "He's got such a fantastic body..." hahaha that's funny.

  • Comment removed

  • be strong jimmy!!

  • this is the 15 hole at cog hill :d

  • he shanks it and yet still makes himself a shot out of such a bad shot...????

  • lol nick faldo "oh eh shanked it"

  • That ball still fuckin launched though.

  • thats a push...not a shank

  • @Eugen3Cho1 thats definitely a shank

  • @Eugen3Cho1 no thats a shank he hit it off the toe

  • @maginick24 yeah smartass a shank actually hits off the heel of the club, not the toe

  • @maginick24 actually a shank is off the heel of the club, not the toe

  • Looks more like a blocked shot rather than a shank

  • Not a shank (really) but a very poor shot.

  • Lol love Faldo's reaction. Whats with "Be strong Jimmy". Haha.

  • I cannot listen to Nick Faldo. He never talks in a full sentence. He always has to take a breath in the middle of his words. It drives me crazy!

  • awful, for once.

  • Aww I wanted to see Trevor's drive at the end haha..

  • I get the shanks and mine are nothing like that!!!!

  • That wasn't a shank.....I'll show you a fuckin SHANK!!!!! LOL!!!

  • @martinavizcomm

    haha lol. yeah this shot wasn't that bad :)

  • That was about as pure a shank as possible. Faldo's reaction is awesome

  • @illeagl Faldo is a little too over the top like he always is when talking about Tiger's fuck up's.

  • the distance of his shanks are the distance of my drives

  • From :38 to :42 makes no sense

  • He swung like he had a cock in his ass.

  • omg nick faldo shut the fck up

  • Sick thing is he probably made par from there...

  • @jpsartrean agreed haha

  • not really a shank. i think he just hit it with an extremely open face here. he didnt turn his wrist over in time. this happens when you open the face so much in the backswing. allows him to play more shots but timing is very difficult.

  • wtf, I cant remember the last time I did this

  • Is this a shank? Looks more like a block, no?

  • tigers like, "oh shit what do i yell again???"

  • cialis western open lol

    tiger would play there...

  • listen to these idiots. Talking like they can play the game better than tiger. Morons.

  • @cxflyer sorry former #1 in the world Nick Faldo hasn't earned the right to diagnose somebodys elses swing

  • @kmania13 hess won like 5 majors dumass

  • @dawgs1118 I was being sarcastic...since cx claimed they were idiots I pointed out that former #1 in the world had all the right in the world to say whatever he wanted to

  • @dawgs1118 um not even close he has 18 professional majors

  • I wish I could shank like that. I'd be a single figure handicapper!

  • @MattSavage2006 No... you'd be tiger woods

  • @ThePkelly3 Well...I DO love to smash whores...so thats another box ticked

  • He must of be thinking about his last whore he fucked just a he was on the backswing

  • @BrianDewy hahahahaha

  • did you see that the fans were kicking the ball LOLLL my kinda fans!!

    **here ya go tiger!**

  • Hello I would be very apprecate if you visit my channel and left comments on my swing! Thanks you!

  • seeing tiger woods yell fore made my day today.

  • Nick Faldo should be hog tied and beaten to death with socks full of soap bars... Just sayin, but yeh no shank just a biiiigggg push...

  • @scoobasteve3531 dude u dnt fucking say tht bout ppl u insensitive prick get a life.

  • this is exactly what I do with my drives when I don't stay focused

  • the club face was just open NOT A SHANK

  • This wasnt a shank!!! it was just a dead block push.

  • still with the slow mo I cant see what he did wrong

  • @AlexH09 look at his wrists!

  • peter alliss needs to shut the fuck up seriously

  • I fuckin HATE nike faldo...wat a fuckin cunt!

  • Four!!

  • That's what we call a good shank though, I mean it went half height off to the right...that's most people's normal miss hits haha

  • at least he yelled fore unlike sergio

  • EVERYONE look at the dude in the red shirt!!! he picks up the cup and then picks up the ball its at 0:11

  • i shank like that man sometimes... i do it because i stand to close.. i hate it!
