Just in case you missed it…. Bill Haas was faced with an enormously difficult shot on the 2nd playoff hole in the Tour Championship, with his pulled approach shot finding the edge of the water just beyond the green. NBC commentator Johnny Miller said, “I’d give him 1 in 5 odds of getting this within 15 feet (of the hole).” Those were very generous odds even under most normal situations, much less a Tour Championship playoff with an additional $10 million payout at stake. What would happen next will be played over and over for the remainder of Bill Haas’s career, and it could easily be argued that this shot alone led to his 3rd PGA Tour career win, not to mention the $10 million FedEx Cup race.
If this isn’t the shot of the year in golf, then shoot me now and put me out of my misery.
