The finest golfers from all around the world are competing in this $1 million event. And amongst them, one participant is the Korn Ferry Tour professional golfer, Ollie Schniederjans. 

While Schniederjans now stands in a satisfactory position on the leaderboard, he exhibited quite a few astonishing putts throughout the game. But his weird putting style on the 10th hole added more bafflement to the golf community.

It is nothing new to witness weird golfing styles. Even one such instance has been previously faced with Will Zalatoris’ unusual putting video going viral. Now recently, a new video from the NV5 Invitational went viral on social media. In that video, Schniederjans was seen hitting the golf ball in a fairly unique style, uncanny from the ones usually seen on golf courses. He was holding the club with only his left hand, and his right hand was placed on his left arm. But, no matter how he executed his gameplay, he successfully shot the ball into the 10th hole in round two, making a birdie. 

Now, as the video went viral, the internet crowd also poured in like a swarm of bees, and they expressed their views in the form of the following remarks:
