Presidents Cup golfer punches ball directly into thinnest tree on course

This is actually impressive and hard to do, especially when you’re one of the best golfers in the world.

Danny Lee started his Presidents Cup match on Friday in Korea by yanking his drive way left. The New Zealander was in a tight spot, but still had a nice opening to pitch out to a spot where he could get back into the hole. Somehow, Lee put his ball dead center in the one of the thinnest tree trunks on the entire course. It was oddly impressive and the ball rocketed about 50 yards backwards.
