Tiger played a poor tee shot on the par-3 16th hole. His ball was in the thick rough while there was a slope on the green towards the pond. Therefore, reaching anywhere near the flagstick was a tremendous achievement.“Anything within 6 feet would be a good shot,” said the commentators on air.

However, with all the experience, the 46-year-old played a high chip shot and allowed the slope to do its job. The ball landed on the perfect spot, and the slope guided it inside the hole. Meanwhile, everyone witnessing this was awestruck by the imagination and execution of the shot from Tiger Woods.
