My favorite Tiger Shot

That's not just my favorite Tiger Shot - it's my favorite shot ever. Unbelievable. Of course, luck involved, but you have to put yourself in position with great skills to have luck as consistently as he does. That was amazing.
Hopefully, he'll be the same Tiger when he returns.

That was a really entertaining commercial and the skills to bounce it up and down on his wedge was amazing.
What do you mean you watch a commercial live? Were you there for the filming?
BTW, I thought I heard that the commercial got yanked soon after airing. If I remember correctly, Tiger was still using Titleist balls, but was endorsed by Nike golf wear ( I don't think Nike started making golf balls yet, or Tiger still preferred Titileist). And Titleist contends Tiger did not get permission to use a golf ball in a TV commercial unless it was endorsed by Titleist; since it was Nike commercial, it ticked them off even more and they couldn't come to terms, so the commercial had to be yanked.
You can still see it on YouTube.
I was so pissed. I was screaming at the TV for it not to go in. And then it did. It was the shot that won the tourney for him. That was a great masters and a great shot, but I didn't want Tiger to win.
This is my favorite

If you ever go to the Masters, get tickets to the practice round. Hang around the 16th and you will see every player hit dozens of shots similar to that for that pin placement.
As far as my favorite Tiger shots,
1. By far, the chip in from the back edge of the island green #17 at TPC at Sawgrass in the US Amateur.
2. The hole in one at the Phoenix open a few years back...

We used to mess around and practice this as kids... Sucks when you catch one in the face!
I agree... The way that green slopes everything goes right to the hole. That shot is made probably 2-3 times every sunday of the Masters, just normally by guys that are out of contention...
Davis Love III made a similar, and in my opinion better shot at 16 a few years earlier. There is a video of it on You Tube but the quality isn't very good.
