Adelaide’s event was the best yet most exhausting tournament of LIV Golf so far, as per Smith. Despite the circumstances, Smith managed to deliver an outstanding performance in Singapore on the first day, scoring six birdies without committing any bogeys or missing any fairways.

For one particular shot, Smith removed his right shoe to get a better grip. LIV Golf shared the video on its Twitter Handle and the caption was,Anything for the shot #LIVGolf @rippergc_

The commentator in the background jokingly said, “Make sure your phone is not in the pocket when you do that,” as Smith was standing and taking a shot from just right next to the pond. 

 

After Smith removed his shoe, he tried and tested if his position was right. Despite the efforts, the shot did not work out, but it was definitely fun to watch.
