Miguel Angel Jimenez hits from his knees out of British Open pot bunker

The most limber 50-year-old golfer in the world takes an interesting stance to blast out of a Hoylake pot bunker.

Miguel Angel Jimenez’s renowned and bizarre stretch routine finally had a practical use on the golf course during tournament action. Jimenez caught a nasty lie up against the wall of a pot bunker, and explored all manner of stances and stretches before figuring out how to make a swing.
