WATCH: Bubba Watson Drains An Absolutely Ridiculous Trick Putt at The Masters

 

This has to be watched, and then re-watched, to be believed.

Wednesday at The Masters — during the hallowed event’s annual pre-tournament Par-3 Contest — two-time champion Bubba Watson holed a three foot putt on the seventh green at Augusta National’s Par-3 course.

Doesn’t sound too impressive, right? Well, consider — first off — that Watson used a wedge, not his putter.

Still not impressed? Fair enough.

The clincher? The ball actually traveled well over a hundred feet.

Watson hit the putt approximately 60 feet past the hole. And then, little by little, the ball began to trickle back towards the hole.

The two-time Masters champ was so confident he’d holed it that he actually took off his visor and began shaking hands with those around him. Sure enough, the putt fell.

Never a doubt.
