The most heart breaking was the 09 Open at Turnberry. Would have been one of the greatest major wins of all time by Tom Watson.



I still cant believe he didn't win this.

It would have been the GOAT.

Brutal, I will always remember where I was watching this.

Bubba Watson 2012 Masters which included the greatest shot in golf history when he hit out of the pine straw and hooked the ball onto the green.

The 2016 Open Championship final round when Henrik Stenson and Phil Mickelson were trading blows all day. Was such a good match. They were the only 2 in it because they were so far ahead of the field. Stenson had to hit some incredible shots to beat Phil that day.

Not really a favorite, but a couple memorable ones…

Whatever year Charl Schwartzel won the Masters. Rory started the day with lead and shot 80. Multiple people going nuts coming down the stretch.

08 Masters. Top 4 going into Sunday shot 75, 77, 78, and 79. Trevor Immelman was the 75 and with his life. Brandt Snedeker shot 77 and broke down in a post round interview. Made me a fan to show how much it meant to have it slip away.

‘86 Masters

It was my senior year of college and the CO of our NROTC unit had all of the seniors over for a cookout. We all ended up huddling in front of his TV watching Jack’s charge.

And just because I’m a sadistic bastich the 99 Open and Van De Velde’s choke job on the last hole.


For me, these are the 2 correct answers.

I felt bad for the Frenchie...his decision making and common sense on the 72nd hole was very much on the level of dumb shite I would do on a course

Crenshaw at the Masters in 95 right after his long time teacher and mentor Harvey Penick died. My allergies really acted up watching that finish

Sunday, 2007 U.S.Open.

Cabrera held off the world #1 Woods and #3 Furyk to eek-out his first major title. Every time the network went to commercial break, and at other points, Cabrera was shown proudly chain smoking heaters. He had a 370 yd bomb right down the middle on one back nine hole. I had not seen him before, but he and his belly held off the fitness minded pursuers.

Furyk is my #1 golfer, so the final round of 2003 US Open, the 2011 tour championship and the 58 are highlight rounds.

There are 2 things I remember vividly about that final round:

1. Van de Velde going into the drink at 18.

2. JFK Jr. going into the drink the prior night, causing news updates sporadically through the broadcast.
