Tiger was playing the second hole at the Farmers Insurance Open. After hitting the ball to the middle of the fairway, the goat hit the ball 140 yards out to the green. As expected from the golf legend, the ball went straight into the hole, resulting in an eagle.

However, the situation changed in just mere seconds. The ball that went into the hole came out, much to the surprise of the spectators and Tiger alike. Although it might not be that visible in the first video, the second video shows how the ball went in and popped out in slow motion.

Whatever happened to Tiger was a one-in-a-million experience. It is almost impossible to hit an eagle from 140 yards away. Since it was Tiger who hit it, it is believable. However, the ball going in and out of the hole, in the end, was not anyone would have imagined.
