Odd/funny golfing videos

    I thought I'd start a thread where people could post videos from Youtube of odd/funny things that may happen on a golf course. I saw a link to a video on Facebook earlier tonight and that resulted in me spending the next half an hour searching for other videos. It'd be handy to have a collection of them all I suppose.

    The first one is David Feherty announcing the players on the first tee at the Tavistock Cup this year. He pretty much just rips into all of them. His introduction of Tiger at the very start of the video is brilliant.



    This next one is of Feherty asking Tiger to do commentary at last years Tavistock Cup. He does a pretty good job I have to say and shows his knowledge of the course and where is a good place to hit the drive.



    This one is a brilliant video. My heart was in my mouth watching it :P. Would the guy get the driver, or would he end up in the shítty looking water? I'll let you find out yourself.



    Finally we have something that only Poulter would do, run the length of a hole to take a putt quickly and then sprint to the next tee to take his shot. It was all in aid of his group having to get up at 5 the next morning to tee off at 7.30 though so it was worth the shame and potential disaster with a few dropped shots. It was the final hole and the rules state that if you tee of on a hole then you can finish it even if the signal for end of play due to darkness has taken place.

    Before anyone complains about Poulter impinging on the group ahead it was actually Phil who suggested it to Poulter so he gets off on this one at least.



    So does anyone else have any videos to share? Saves me time having to look for them :P.

    Tigers commentary was excellent.

    Nice to hear something other than 'Well Jim, he has about 130 to the green here. A 9 iron should do the job'.

    Guys

    Check out this vid from 4min 25 sec.
    Where are the ripples coming from??
    I remember Gmac getting penalized for grounding the club in a hazard.
    What do you think?

    Ripples look like they're coming from his right shoe which is partly in the water. Doesn't look like he's grounding the club at any stage.
    Steve Stricker's bunker shot on No2 is savage, I'd have that as my No1 out of the 10 shown I think.

    How do 9 balls fit in the hole??

    You'd think after 5 or 6 it would overflow?

    Had the same thoughts myself.
    1 ball struggles to fit in the hole for me most of the time!
