I’m not going to lie…it’s happened to me.
Wonder what amazing shot he had between 16-18 that made him want to come back for the next round. Stupid wonderful game
He should have taken an unplayable penalty under stroke and distance, retaking the putt. His second to last putt was pretty much the same as the first and he would have saved 2 strokes!

That is brutal! Golf certainly can be a very cruel sport.

What score did you end up with on the hole?
As I watched that I was having flashbacks to the first green at Cascata, where I did almost the exact same thing with my first putt.
Sadly, it has happened to me. Multiple times. On the same hole. In the same round. On the way to a snowman lol.
I don't know if there is a more deflating thing that can happen to you on the course. In a good position, and then just an absolute dumpster fire.

Triple 7,
I feel for him but also I take some enjoyment from seeing it happen to players that are good.
It's called Schadenfreude!

Lol, reminds me of the 5th green at my home club. I’ve had to go get my sand wedge several times after having a downhill birdie putt on that green. Putting off of a green happens to multiple players each Wednesday at my club when they roll the greens and put the pins in tough spots for men’s day league play. Last Tuesday and Wednesday they rolled the greens and I had both of my wedge shots spin off the 3rd green. My ball marks were less than 10 feet rom the hole(one was past it) and both shots finished 50+ feet away off the front of the green.
Similar issue happened to me last Friday. And then I remind myself that I choose to play this game 
He plays golf just like the rest of us. Until you see his score card before that hole...

Well, I do hit triples, so I'm sorta the same.He plays golf just like the rest of us. Until you see his score card before that hole...

He didn't pound that first putt at all. Wow
would hate a course like that, I'd shoot a million

When you play at one course for a while and then go somewhere new, with really fast greens, it can happen.....

I think things like that are a little excessive and penal. To me that is where they've gone a little overboard with green speed and shaving the banks too much. There should never be a way that an 8ft putt even has the chance to become a 50yard chip.
