In case you forgot, Tiger Woods is the greatest golfer ever.

Only Tiger Woods could pull this off. With his ball resting on the right flank of an oak tree on the par-5 11th of the TPC, Tiger swung his inverted pitching wedge lefty and the ball actually flew 112 yards. Most amateur golfers cannot hit a normal pitching wedge 100 yards.

Yes, Woods bogeyed the hole. But that was after the lefty swing produced a third shot from the rough behind yet another oak tree, 173 yards from the pin. That obstructed third shot came up short, leading to Tiger's fourth shot, a pitch that landed behind the green on a sprinkler. He then used his 3-wood to chip the ball within a foot of the hole. Naturally, Tiger used his 3-wood to tap in for a 6.

Wow.
