  • :(:(:(:(

  • Nike just loved Woods' hole-out. I think his caddy should be given most of the credit, though.

  • I've actually made a shot exactly like the one on #2.

  • That's yawntastic.

  • they should have put tigers "better then most" shot

  • Comment removed

  • #2 was the best shot I have ever seen...it was downhill,it was so far from the hole not to mention the water is right there..INCREDIBLE

  • MY FRIENDS CALL ME DOUBLE BOGEY MAN

  • if mize's ball didn't hit the pin, it was always going to go into the water.. i feel so bad for norman.. :/

  • GOLF = ghastly odious lousy foolishness

  • Tiger Chip in = Chip ball to top slope + let ball roll to hole = WEEKEND GOLFER SKILL + VEGAS LUCK

    Jack 1-iron = Hit a club like NOBODY has ever hit or will ever hit = LEGEND SKILL

  • that wasnt the best shot ever sorry but im not buying that

  • tiger wins most dramatic shot, not the best in skill

  • Jack's 1 iron.

    1-a 1 iron was next to impossible to hit. Like been said and it's so true, "God can't hit a 1 iron but Jack can."

    2- hitting it into a 30+ mile an hour wind.

    3- US open hanging in the balance.

    4- add 3 together plus hitting the pin and almost a hole in 1.

    I'd like to see Tiger Wood even try and hit a 1 iron:P He can't even hit a drive straight with the earth size heads and 40 mile sweet shots that just about force you to hit it straight.

  • @as435943 hitting an iron and a wood is like apples and oranges. Tiger is one of the best ball strikers of all time. I'm sure he would not have an issue with a 1 iron at all. he was the best iron player on tour for over a decade. what a ridiculous comment on your part.

  • @as435943 Tiger doesn't need to hit 1 iron. He hits his 4 farther than Jack's driver.

  • Tom Watson - Legend.

  • no tigers wasn't!

  • Oh Greg Norman... Sucks that your in the top ten three times, but as the person finishing second...

  • #3 is the #1 luckiest shot in history, not the greatest. Great shot to get it close, lucky to get it in. 99 more attempts at that and not 1 goes in, but it was just in the cards that day.

  • @jamminjeff8566 That's the same with every other one of these shots... none of these guys could make their same shot again. #3 needed spin and the break, so did #2. They all took the same amount of skill and luck.

  • poor norman...

  • @bluto312

    Yeah by miles

    Tigers a beast but I wish he be back at his best cos when he is insane 

  • Tom Watson's shot was no doubt the all time great shot,because against Jack Nicklaus,the pressure, oh my God it could not have been better.Tom i love you

  • tiger woods #3 is clearly the greatest shot of all time

  • Great Video! BUT, what kind of Golf Expert would call an Albatross a "Double Eagle"????????????

  • @iloveairfrance WOW.

  • # 6 should have been # 1

  • mize's chip is the greatest shot in the history of the game imo. the greens at the masters back then were so baked, it was like putting on ice. gary mccord referred to them as bikini wax and hasn't been allowed back since that comment. hard to make a top 10 but one that comes to mind- called it 10A. ha. zinger's bunker shot the 93 memorial. the late great payne stewart on the green in 3 a shot ahead. then misses the putt to lose by one.

  • SEVE. 1983 Ryder Cup. 3 Wood from Bunker. End of.

  • poor greg hahah

  • Hahaha greg norman has been robbed of like 5 wins

  • Maury Povich? Wasn't expecting to see him putting his $0.02 in.

  • @ebelingb lmao

  • what director made the transitions that announce the number, its so random and bizarre haha

  • Would have been nice to include some more shots from that other area outside America - you know, the world? Plenty of geat shots in Europe and other places - what about Tom Watson's shot to the final hole at Turnberry (the Duel in the Sun)? He and Nicklaus duking it out playing flawless golf, Tom hits a long iron to about 3 feet on the last hole, then Nicklaus makes a 35-foot putt to share the lead. Those two shots alone would have to be in my top-10 list.

  • @mikthebik talk to epsn

  • If someone played hole-in-one on the 18th hole and win the whole tournament by this shot, that would top the Tiger's shot. But right now there is only one winner, the perfection in its purest form, timing is the one, shot almost in right angle. The only thing missing is the Nike logo to appear when the ball stopped.

  • Tiger is all about the moment...the moments he shares with whores and strippers.

  • @RealMadrid560 Omg that comment is so funny

  • awesome

    

  • awesome

    

  • I feel bad for greg norman lol.

  • damn right about the tiger shot.. had that been in the movie the director would have been chewed up for making it over the top and oh gimme a break, that can never happen in a real life shenanigans.

  • As a golfer myself off a 2 handicap, I would have to say Nicklaus's 1-iron to inches was the best shot. Tiger's chip looked better/harder than what it was. All he had to do was place it up on the green and let it collect towards the hole - it's not as difficult as it looks.

  • @milesdavisblackmx5 i agree with you, id luv to see Tiger hit a one iron like that.

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah but the thing that made toms shot number one was the fact that he HAD to make it. If he didn't make it we might be looking at Nicklaus with 5 Opens. So the pressure and clutch of the shot put it above Tigers. Although Tigers shot is a shot God couldn't even pull off haha

  • I'm the biggest Tiger hater on the planet, but his chip on #16, that's the greatest shot in golf history and I cannot imagine anything topping that. That was a much more difficult shot to hole than Watson's at Pebble, Verne's call is legendary, the shot was much more dramatic due to how much time the shot took, and the fact it stopped for a second on the lip and just fell in. I was 9 at the time and nothing close to a golf fan, but my jaw hit the floor at that I was so amazed.

  • I can't stand Cheatah but that shot was amazing. He not only made a very tough chip, he actually hit it so that the Nike logo was clearly displayed as the ball hung there for an extra second. Pretty good.

  • poor greg norman...

  • poor greg norman...

  • I love how they got Maury Provich to commentate for the Mize chip.

  • How come that shot got the no.1 spot? and moreover it took over the Tiger Wood's shot which was the best ever i have ever seen ... :O

  • how the hell are any better than Tiger's #3 one. amazing.

  • did he just say shat on the 17th hole??

  • LOL 3:31

  • #4 should have been #1

  • racist

  • #1 should be michael jordan's golf shot

  • Greg Norman got an awful bad doing while he played golf!!

  • @MrTwigg2 i stood open mouthed as gregs boat pulled into melbourne a few years ago,i didnt think they made private boats so big,trust me mr twigg he didnt do so bad !!!

  • @MrTwigg2 Considering the pink shirt he wore that day, I'm glad Mize chipped it in on him.

  • That Mize shot is a thing of beauty.

    We will never likely see anything it again.

  • Watson's lie was impossible. There was pressure, with Nicklaus having the lead, the shot would have gone 50 feet past, and it was just a classic shot and the reaction was great. 

  • Tom Watson deserved that #1

  • #1 sucked ass

  • to bad tiger its ranked poor little 8th now...

  • Get it close, Hell I'm going to sink it!

  • Tom Watson at number 1 - are you serious?

    TIGER was all over that, and some!

  • @123taikata

    of course its serious- the greatest links golfer of all time gets the accolade of the greatest shot of all time from ESPN

  • kissing Jacks ass - Tigers shot was 10 times better!

  • Come on, Tiger's shot is the toughest one to judge. Not only he managed to take the ball in the perfect path, he also managed to control the speed perfectly. The two shot selected by ESPN as #2 and #1 are more or less easy to judge (but hard to execute of course) shots whil none of them have a speed control - mind you all three go down the hill and only Tigers shot is slow enough to stop at the hole. That is the best shot ever....

  • Tom Watson, not only a great golfer but true gentleman of the game

  • hahhahahah dude at 3:31 is mad funny

  • Best sports in the world:

    1. NFL

    2. golf

  • @gounc93 for sure you have no idea what is going on around the world and what you have seen in US, you think is what is happening in the world is! Shame on you...

    Soccer is the number one game in teh world! Football is this popular only in US. Rugby is more popular around the world than football. As a fan of both football and rugby, I would prefer rugby. Rugby and soccer are eventful and continuous. In football most of the time players hang around and plays arae very short.

  • christ poor greg norman always managed to just lose in majors

  • Bruce Greenwood and Tom Watson are like twins

  • where is justin leonard's putt at the 1999 Ryder Cup?

  • Tiger woods is #1.

  • what fucker ass hole bitch go to hell mutherfucker go to nigga ass

  • All of these shots are under absurd pressure, so with that part of it fairly even throughout this series, I am disturbed that the single shot a pro would pull off most often, ends up being #1. Other than maybe Tway's bunker shot, I bet most pros, out of the 10 shots, would actually select this short chip with the ball fully exposed if they had 1 chance to execute any of these shots. Sure, it was slippery, but even if he gets down in 2 he's not dead. Nice shot, but in the 6 or 7 range, I think.

  • i dont know much about golf, but the number 1 shot looks kinda easy Oo

  • @herbfletcher I'm searching the world for that bunker shot of Seve's, 1983 Ryder Cup...has anyone seen it or know where to find it?

  • go tiger

  • for tiger woods 18 holes just wasn't enough!

    thumbs up if you get it!

  • a FUKKN chip shot is ahead of a striped 1 iron into a 30mph wind on a 238 yd par 3 in the U.S. Open .....the most RIDICULOUS thing ever by ESPN

  • jack's 1 iron was way better than tiger's chip. that shots so overrated

  • great point Bull. I guess ESPN was a little thin on talent when they put that together..............hmmm, was Larry Mize too busy for a little comment on HIS shot? Maury Povich? yes, a true golfing authority on everything Masters

  • Mize's pitch and run was more impressive than Watson's famous chip-in. Watson had a good lie and was able to land the ball on the green with enough putting surface to work with to have a reasonable chance of making it. Any professional could probably make the Watson shot maybe one time in 50. The Mize shot was like hitting the lottery.

  • jack didnt own the one iron.. ben hogan truely owned the one iron

  • lol poor greg norman...

  • @cfgolfcf  I know! It seems like he got screwed over a lot. lol almost like the sport itself didn't want him to win O.o

  • what kind of retard rates a chip in better than a double eagle

  • at 2:41 i bet everyones yelling made the ball go in lmfao...

  • This is the nr. 1: 2:26

  • i could beat off to larry mize's chip in at augusta

  • WELL DONE ESPN...great inspiration. As ARNIE has also inspired many SENIORS, perhaps you can inspire your many BOOMER/SENIOR "outdoor athletes" in Vision awarenesss...AMD(macular degeneration)" AMD has now surpassed Prostate cancer in statistics(Novartis.com). A silent anomaly, AMD needs your HELP in awareness!!!

  • wow that woods shot was amazing

  • # 1 was just luck that it hit the flag otherwise it would have gone way past, it was just a hack and hope. Tigers was thought out and well executed and more spectacular. Seriously, who ordered these?!?!?

  • Gus Johnson should've called that Tiger chip.

  • Yeah Tiger's shot should have been #1!

  • Tiger's Chip #3 is way better than the chip on #2

  • Oh my goodness...(ball goes it) Oh wow GOO TIGER WOODS

  • why is maury talking? lol

  • @TheBull06 A producer at ESPN said "Well, we should get 2003 Champion Mike Weir's take on that shot, but more importantly, I wonder what Maury Povich thinks!" Mind-boggling.

  • #3 should have been #1

  • Look up Davis Love III Masters 16th

  • I do believe I have seen Davis Love play a shot from a position near to Tigers and hole it so dont say its impossible; but hey its Tiger so it has to be on here

  • dont think its correct but its the way it is

    

  • 1, 2 and 3 are all debatable, but I feel like Watson got it because he beat nicklaus, if it was someone else, his shot wouldnt even be in there

  • this is BS Tiger's shot was 10000 times better then the #1, i make shot like the #1 like 10 timesin my career, one like Tiger... nver in a million years

  • If Watson didn't even need to Birdie that hole why is it the greatest shot ever? I don't agree with that.

  • Watson's chip from penal rough was hard because equipment in 1982 was still untouched by technology. Woods shot was brilliant, and much of his shot-making is incredible; I think the criteria for the video was these shots led to victories, because a lot of amazing shots have been produced in other situations; eg Seve's 3 wood from a bunker in the 1983 Ryder Cup which landed right next to a difficult pin.

  • I'm biased but I'd say my hole in one was better

  • 2:50  was a clutch shot...

  • cool, it's in HD shitty vision, got any more SHIT nuggets?

  • Check Jack out at 8.05 warmly congratulating Tom. You can see he really means it and he knows he was beaten by the better man on the day.

    Jack was so gracious in defeat, he always said well played, you deserve it! and meant it.

  • never high five with white guy. you'll lose coordination. as example shown by tiger woods and stevie williams

  • never high five with white guy. you'll lose coordination.

  • Seriously, what does sexy voices have to do with golf?

  • greg norman is so unlucky this happened to him atleast 5 times

  • Jack Nicklaus- Greatest Golfer Ever

  • Honestly greg norman must have at least 30 2nd place finishes

  • Mize's shot was way better than Watson's!

  • @mikyt21 i agree, no comparison at all

  • bob bubka. period

  • Tom Watson is the most like-able guy ever

  • Tiger ripped of Davis Love on that chip shot. unbelievable . 

  • its funny how they say double eagle lol its albatross now

  • @SierraKilo28595

    its the same thing both terms are used

  • Comment removed

  • @SierraKilo28595 yea i do what about u

  • @DonWon313 aahh yeah i play too wat handicap u on at the moment and where do u play

  • @SierraKilo28595 im canadian i play in toronto ontario im 7-8 hanicap and ill destroy you

  • @DonWon313 ahh yea wat if i told u i play of a +4.5 wat wuld u say then haha

  • Watson's shot was the greatest of all time? Hardly.

  • This is stupid, Tiger Woods should have atleast taken up 5 spots.

  • i thing tiger had the best shot

  • Great video! I think Larry Mize's chip should be No. 1 and Tiger's chip No. 2, with Watson's chip No. 3. Great shot no doubt but the others were more dramatic. I hope ESPN does an updated version & expands it to Top 20 shots (throw in a few outside of Majors, like Craig Parry's eagle hole-out at Doral to win a playoff in 2004).  Phil Mickelson's incredible shot from the pine straw at the 2010 Masters would be in for sure, as could either of Tiger's birdies to win the 2008 US Open on one leg!

  • greg is the victim

  • Mize has gotta be #1..Augusta playoff...impossible chip..Woods is 2nd or 3rd for sure..but that shot by Mize, lucky or not, was perfect

  • i love how in tigers shot the ball just poses with the NIKE symbol looking at the camera. It´s like the perfect commercial.

  • Mize's shot should be number 1....hands down

  • norman! how many guys have chipped in on him and hit the luckiest shots on him. and the ridiculous awkward goofy celebrations he has to watch from mize and tway

  • Poor Greg Norman....my God, to have been robbed twice...

  • tom watson pitching tinto the hole for birdie!!!! what can u say!?.......i can say that that was the greatest shot in a final round!!!!!!!!

  • Mize's shot should have been #1. I think Mickelson's shot at 13 at Augusta this year will be one of the top ten ever

  • @blotchy67 I agree with you. After all, Watson said he knew he was going to make that short chip, tough as it was. I'm sure that Mize wasn't so confident because it was so much more difficult, and a LOT farther from the hole.

  • hogan's shot is number 1

  • tiger is a dick but he can play golf

  • Tiger all about the moment (and the girls) over rated shot

  • @chilibro your out of your mind over rated. I don't like what he did in his personal life either. This is about the best pro golf shots. I think this one belongs in the top 10

  • I saw #3 when it happened on tv, im like "there is no way he is gonna make it, its gonna fly 20 feet past the hole." But as it slowly crept closer, it dropped and i was cheering and yelling at my tv LOL

  • Honestly, how do you leave off Justin Leonard's putt in the 99 Ryder Cup?

  • @Icey27

    the scenes after were a joke

  • @Icey27 Because it was a putt.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • I vote for Jack's 1 iron being number 1. A 1 iron is tough as hell to hit and t o think that he hit the stick into a 30+mph wind is unGodly.

  • God I love Tom Watson just such a great guy regardless of his golf game. So likeable it's good to see him get the #1 spot here.

  • dishearrtened chris demarco? Tiger bogeyed the next two holes and demarco almost chipped in for the win on 18. I will say that the shot itself was one of the most exciting moments in golf history.

  • Mize's shot was better - ranked #3 -, although Watson's was truly remarkable.

  • i miss espn classic

  • @wetlandsjammin it's still there direcTV channel 208

  • Man I wish Watson had won the Open last year...

  • @Jayps87 I had tears in my eyes I was rooting for him so much!

  • @Jayps87 Watson should of chip the shot off the green at the Open on the 18th, rather than 3 putt it. If I was his caddy, I would of yanked that putter out of his hands and handed him the sand wedge! He would of chipped it close or holed hit making par at worst and win the Open like he did at Pebble Beach.

  • @Jayps87 Me too

  • @Jayps87

    I would have cried like a baby if he had won

  • I have been lucky enough to play two of the greatest courses in the world, Pebble and Oak Hill in Rochester NY site of the 2003 PGA. I stood on the exact spot on 17 at Pebble where Watson chipped in and also on the spot Shawn Micheel hit his approach on 18 at Oak Hill. By FAR the tougher of the two shots was the approach on 18 at Oak Hill. He had 17
