Angel Cabrera followed a shot into the water by chunking a chip into the same pond

No. 15 at Augusta National is usually a hole players attack and try to make up stroke on. That has not been the case during the first round on Thursday. That was really not the case for Angel Cabrera.

Cabrera opted to lay up on the Par 5, only to come up short with his third shot and find the pond in front of the green. Cabrera had to take a drop and then that’s when things got really messy. Cabrera is a very good player with a green jacket on his resume, but that doesn’t make him immune from a very ill-timed chunked shot.

Ouch.

Cabrera then had to take another drop. This time he managed to find the green. He then two-putted to card a nine. When things go bad at Augusta, they go bad in a hurry, just ask Ernie Els.
