“Thankfully No One Was Watching”: An Embarrassing Shortest Miss of Golf Have Set the Internet Ablaze With Its Absurdity

Golf, a sport known for its precision and finesse, occasionally serves up moments that are nothing short of comedic gold. In the recently concluded NV5 Invitational on the Korn Ferry Tour, one golfer managed to etch his name in history, not for a stunning shot but for arguably the shortest miss ever seen on the greens.

Even though the moment was a brutal reality kick to the golfer that the sport was as unpredictable as ever, when the video of this mishap went viral, the internet exploded. With their hilarious reactions, the golf world left no stone unturned to make this golf blooper an unforgettable moment.

The “tap-in” turned tango at the NV5 Invitational

The video opens with the golfer standing confidently over the ball, just a tap-in distance away from the hole. A putt that would usually be completed without any second thoughts turned into an epic disaster. With an air of overconfidence, the golfer lightly tapped the ball, expecting it to obediently find its way into the cup. However, fate had other plans.

The combination of the tricky green and the ball’s speed turned what should have been an easy tap-in into a hilarious misadventure. Instead of nestling safely in the hole, the ball lipped out from the left side of the hole and defiantly rolled away, mocking the golfer’s misplaced confidence. The ball’s journey did not end with a humble tap-in; rather, it hilariously landed a good 3–4 feet away from the hole, turning the straightforward task into a daunting challenge.

Undeterred by this unexpected setback, the golfer did what anyone in his position would do: he marked his ball, stepped aside, and re-calibrated his approach. This time, he wasn’t taking any chances. The pressure was on, with the eyes of the golfing world now upon him.
