Watch the most miraculous par ever on the island par-3 at TPC Sawgrass
Will MacKenzie found an entirely new way to play three shots from unexplored spots on the island hole at The Players Championship.
We’ve seen a lot of funky bounces and odd ways to play the most famous par-3 on the PGA Tour, but Will MacKenzie’s path to posting a 3 took it to a new level.
Playing to a back left pin location, MacKenzie sent his ball just wide of the green. Fortunately, he hit the wooden bulkhead surrounding the grass and caught a bounce directly down the narrow bridge across to the green. It was an extremely lucky kick, but he was still put in an impossible position -- the ball buried in thick stuff with almost nowhere to land an extremely delicate shot.
No matter, he just used the artificial turf that lines the bridge walkway, spinning the ball from that surface to within a few feet from the cup. Just your regular tap-in par at the 17th.
