Tiger Woods greatest shot of all time


Smash Factors

Recommended Posts

Tiger recently stated what he considers his greatest shot of all time.

http://www.newstalk....t-of-his-career

 

And no, it's not the putt heard around the world at the 2005 Masters.

 

It was a fairway bunker shot with a 3 iron at the 2002 PGA Championship (Hazeltine #18).

 

When in Dubai, Woods recorded an interview with CNN's Living Golf, and was asked what his favourite shot was. The answer may come as a surprise.

An approach shot, out of the bunker on the last hole of Woods' second round at the 2002 PGA Championship at Hazeltine was his immediate reply, when asked by the host Shane O'Donoghue.

"That 3-iron out of the bunker there was the greatest feeling shot I've ever hit in my life. I've never hit a shot that good".

Have a look for yourself :)

epic shot and a major he let get away. That couldve easily been 15, YE Yang episode 16 and shouldve run down Michale Campbell at Pinehurst 17 and just for fun he let a few slip away post scandal on the weekend 18, 19. This all just off top of my head, probably others that in a perfect world get him to 20 even with the scandal and injuries.

He definitely should of won the 2002 PGA. People remember that he birdied the last four but the stretch of holes before that, did him in.

 

To this day, and no one will ever convince me otherwise, the one he let slip away the most (besides the 2009 PGA) was the 2010 US Open. He had all the momentum after Saturday and all he had to do was shoot even par on Sunday and he would've won. If I would've told you that all Tiger would've had to do was shoot an even par round at Pebble Beach and he wins the US Open, you would've looked at it as the lock of the century.

The putt at 2:29, especially given the circumstance, has to be one of the most Jedi things ever done in sports.

 

Somehow, you thought, "he's going to make this", even though the notion of making that is absurd.

 

And there it goes...rolling, turning, twisting.

 

Center cup.

With the speed that putt was traveling when it hit the hole on 13 its a good thing it went in. That took some nads.

Theres a reason that was his last major though. He used up a lifetimes worth of 60 foot putts and chip ins just to get in a playoff. Very gutsy but also as he admitted very lucky. My favorite shot is also the one at hazeltine above. pure power

A little revisionist though with all due respect. He could have also had as little as 10 though. He didnt let it get away Beem took it away from him. Yang took it away from him. Look at the smirk on tigers face after yang makes birdie on 18 right in his face. He has that you mother f***er look!

If youre in the mood to watch the

 

Best golf you will ever see.

 

Pour yourself a brandy (it will go well with the music), turn up the volume, and cast this on your tv.

The end is superb ; )

Purely epic stuff, historic and heroic. Dude was, is and will always be golf. No one has ever played the game better. Bone chilling bad a** on the course. He cut your heart out and handed it back to you in the palm of his hand with eyes of steel. Todays erratic, soft, whiny, multi millionaire kids who are just as likely to miss a cut as contend would need to change their underwear 10 times if they were paired with prime Tiger.

I'm biased since it was at a Canadian Tournament but his shot out of the bunker on 18 at Glen Abbey was just as ridiculous. It was over water!!!!!

Oh of course! I didn't mean you post them here on the hallowed ground that is another TW thread. I wouldn't want to interfere with anyone's right to worship freely. .
