When I go out and play golf, double digit scores on one hole are routine. But for PGA Tour golfers, they are a rarity. Not only are the pros much more adept at keeping their balls out of harm’s way in the first place, but they are remarkably good at getting out of trouble once they get into it.
So with that in mind, surely no professional golfer could ever card a score as high as, say, 16 on a single hole right?
Na.
Oh sorry, let me be a bit more specific: that is “Na” as in Kevin Na, who will now be ignominiously known as the guy who went 12-over par at the opening round of the Valero Texas Open yesterday.
Here is the gory video proof:
Kevin, on behalf of crappy golfers everywhere, I would just like to say: thank you. Ironically, your 9th hole misadventures have inspired me to get back out on the links. Now, every time I shoot a 15 or lower on a par 4 (probably 50% of the time) I’ll be able to say that I outperformed a professional golfer.
You may be too shocked and embarrassed to realize it now, but you truly are a hero to us all.
