Sometimes golf is about hitting the most jaw-dropping spectacular unlikely and unbelievable shot today we’re counting down the 10 craziest golf shots in history number 10 iconic Woods Nike shot let’s kick off this countdown with possibly the greatest player to ever pick up a golf club Tiger Woods this
Shot on the 16th hole of Augusta during the 2005 Masters might just be his most iconic faced with an extremely difficult chip Woods studies the grein and picks his spot he drops it exactly where he wants to and the ball slowly rolls and rolls and rolls it then stops for
Dramatic effect before finally falling right into the hole Woods went on to win The Masters but this was really his crowning moment it also happens to be absolutely perfect for a Nike advert with the Swoosh being the last thing you see before the ball disappears just do it number nine Jack
Nicholis Pebble Beach 1972 it’s the 17th hole at the US Open being held at Pebble Beach the kidney-shaped green is ruthless and gale force winds are blowing bunkers surround the green and the ocean weits menacingly to the left Jack Nicholas is two up over the field and on the hunt for his third
US Open Nicholas pulls out his one iron a very difficult Club to hit with even given today’s Club technology let alone 50 years ago the most composed man on the golf course he flushes it sending it head first into the wind the ball bounces on the green and hits the flag
Ending up a couple of feet away from the pin the golden bear has just pulled off one of the riskiest trickiest shots in golf history one hole later he lifts the US Open yet again cementing his name in history crazy courage followed by insanely good execution Take a Bow Jack
Nicholas number eight love Mark’s bunker dunk Jamie Lemark found himself in the bunker on this hole in the 2016 John Deere classic 26 ft away from the pin he gracefully hoists the ball out of the sand and it falls right into into the hole for an incredible dunk love Mark
Earned an eagle for this hole and it must have felt fantastic it must be said that the way the ball hits the pin and falls in is really quite lucky but the best golfers make their own luck it’s crazy that love Mark managed to find the
Hole without so much as a bounce from in the sand number seven Garcia’s tree climbing exploits at the 2013 Arnold Palmer Invitational a couple of insane things happened in a row firstly Sergio Garcia’s ball somehow managed to get lodged in a tree then rather than go for
A drop Garcia decided to show off his Tarzan skills he hops up into the tree and stands next to his ball facing backwards his caddy passes him his Club From Below Garcia holds it just below the grip and manages to find the Fairway with an unbelievable shot in the weirdest of circumstances
How many shots have you seen from up in a tree pure Insanity number six Nicholas’s class this insane shot is the only putt on our list and it took place at a course opening exhibition match played by Jack Nicholas Tom Watson Arnold Palmer and Johnny Miller Miller finds
Himself 102 ft away from the hole while still being on the green and is faced with a variety of nasty slopes Miller says it’s impossible to putt so the golden bear takes matters into his own hands he swaggers over drops his ball takes a quick look and then whacks it it
Swings one way then the other as it makes its way over to the pin the caddy quickly grabs the flag from the hole lucky that he did because the ball then arrows into the cup bouncing up but staying in the hall I’m not sure if it
Was Nicholas’s best ever shot but it was without a doubt his coolest moment on the golf course only Nicholas could pull off that crazy moment number five stop drop and roll for an ace American fuzzy Zeller participated in the 2006 principal Charity Classic and showed everyone it is better to be
Lucky than skilled on this part three he hits his t-shot a bit off the green and it bounces before stopping in the edge of the rough however the ball did didn’t like it in the rough to everyone’s shock the ball starts moving again leaves the rough rolls onto the green before
Finally nesting in the hole as The Crowd Goes Wild Zeller hits a cool thumbs up as a celebration if I had hit that shot I would have been knee sliding right in front of the crowd number four mikkelson’s crazy reverse shot caught in a horrible spot just above a bunker Phil mikkelson was
In a very thorny position but the king of escapes had a crazy trick up his sleeve he lines up to his shot in the totally opposite direction to the hole he then flops it so hard that the ball takes off and goes towards the hole behind him the ball just misses the pin
But ends up a few yards away it’s so creative for mikkelson and so insane to even think up yet alone to execute perfectly and that’s why Phil was a must-watch golfer number three spe runs down the hill one of my favorite things about golf is that fans will cheer any player hitting a
Good shot especially if it’s the Ryder Cup if you want evidence of that look no further than this wond shot from Jordan spe caught in some of the most difficult rough I’ve ever seen playing on an almost vertical slope the American was in a world of trouble however he hit one
Of the craziest shots in golf history somehow managing to lift the ball very high into the air for it to plop down next to the flag meanwhile spe is running down the hill I don’t know which recovery was better the shot or the fact that he didn’t fall into the water
Actually it’s definitely the shot there are simply no words to describe how difficult that was truly miraculous stuff number two John ROM’s water skipping Ace it is a a tradition at Augusta one of the hardest courses in the world to try and skip the ball across to the Grain on the 16th hole
During practice rounds that’s exactly what John ROM did in 2020 and to everyone’s surprise the ball not only found the green it dropped right in the hole it’s an absolutely incredible shot in so many different ways it defies gravity and the way it slowly Falls in is honestly a thing of
Beauty it could not have been a more aesthetically pleasing shot to make it even more exciting that was ROM’s second hole in one that week on top of that it was also his birthday that day not a bad way to celebrate your birthday and it would almost certainly be our number one
If it had happened in a competition rather than a practice round number one Darren Clark’s bouncy Stone shot I never get tired of watching this shot at the smurfit European open in 2005 Irishman Darren Clark is playing the tricky 18th hole with water just to the left of the
Green providing a real challenge Clark’s ball lands on the green and is headed towards the water it rolls out of play onto some rocks incredibly the ball bounces about eight times before cheekily popping up back in play just next to the grain I love the ball’s comedic timing in this video the way
That it sits there after defying the laws of gravity and science is just hilarious
