Golf Double Eagle/Albatross Compilation (RARE)

[@jeremybr2020]

One thing I love about golf is that you can be in the middle of a grueling tournament with your competitors right there next to you, but if you make an albatross or a hole in one, everyone is all smiles and high fiving you. That is such cool sportsmanship.

[@goldenjimbo007]

I'm American and learned golf through Mario Golf 64 - it's an Albatross to me.

[@AGWesty]

[@myluresstuckinatree2111]

Yep, it’s definitely an Albatross. Double eagle pfft

[@bigal6274]

Mario Golf 64 is the reason I play golf today.

[@falconpowerful2362]

It will always be an Albatross to me. "Double Eagle" sounds like 4 under...

[@assedchap]

4 under would be a hole in one on a par 5

[@kendracapalbo]

That’s called a Condor!

[@alistairjohnson177]

@Ballyliffin Bros An eagle is 2 under par, an albatross is 3 under par it isn't 4 under par so double eagle makes no sense at all, no one says double birdie for an eagle do they.

Albatross, double eagle, whatever you wanna call it. It's a really big bird. LMFAO!!! Classic comments from that guy

[@jeffk1722]

I prefer albatross, since double-eagle makes me think it's 2x an eagle or 4 under (which would not really be possible, unless it's some wild fluke of a hole in one on par 5)

[@angelamitchell5593]

HELP NEEDED TO SETTLE A DISPUTE...Does a hole in one count on a par 4 when the Winter green is being used ? It was a 350yd par 4 and the winter green was about 20 yards from normal green (Im Angela's boyfriend..she cant hit the ball that far...yet :-D)

[@angelamitchell5593]

@@jeffk1722 if its a par 4 and you get it in the hole from the tee then its JUST a simple hole in one.

David Faharety is the dude who said it .

[@alexjones7043]

Jeff K I agree. It’s like a hat trick and a double hat trick in cricket. A hat trick is 3 wickets in 3 balls. A double hat trick is 4 in 4. That doesn’t make sense to me and my understanding of double.

[@stephenphillip5656]

"The rarest shot in golf"... Man, I just watched about 20 of 'em! There's something special about these. The last one came closest to the ultimate shot - hits ball, flight and *straight in the hole without bouncing on the green.* I saw it on UK TV in last year in one of the big Tournaments but it must be ultra ultra rare. Hats off to all the golfers featured in this video montage. Great skill!

[@JohnSmith-zw8vp]

Even rarer still is a condor/vulture (four under par).

Daniel Berger’s is by far the most impressive. Not really a pin anyone would even think to shoot at on their 2nd and he takes it 1 yard over the water. Absolutely beautiful shot one of the best I’ve ever seen.

[@Supperdude9]

That's what they get paid to do. If that's your job, you follow that ball.

[@j.rscooters7309]

undahmongoose96792 I

[@KnickKnack07]

It SHOULDN'T be what they are paid to do. Showing the ball close up in flight is just plain fucking stupid. IT makes all shots look EXACTLY THE SAME! Just a ball against he sky. So viewers can't tell the difference between a perfect shot 325 yards down the middle of the fairway and a bad slice that lands in the adjacent fairway. A TV sports camera is supposed to be the eyes of the TV viewer, to allow them to watch the same thing that they could if they were there in person. And I guarantee you NO ONE in the gallery of a golf event watches with binoculars and follows the ball in flight.

[@seurynck]

Actually, when you watch someone hit a golf ball in person you do follow the ball in the air to see where it is going. What would you propose that the camera men do instead of following the ball?

[@sludge4125]

seurynck, as someone who has been to many pro tournaments, and I mean from the start to the finish, you are 100% correct. However, the spectators do have the peripheral vision to see where it will probably land. Following the flight of the ball with the camera is just the way it is done. Not right, not wrong, just because. However, if the way they followed the ball was KKK's way, I guarantee you would not see the ball on your television. And I have stood side by side with those cameramen, and I admire their ability to do that.

[@robbie8142]

My name is Robbie Hardcastle from Australia. I played golf for 20 years all up and I have never had an Albatross or an Ace on a 4. Would have been nice to have it as a memory BUT 20 years of golf has so many outstanding shots together with spectacular melt downs that cost me dearly in my child hood obsession to play on the circuit and run something. I have been more than 3 in front more times than I would like to remember to choke on the final holes and feel lower than any other event in my life by a factor of 10. Those memories haunted me and I was left like a ....... Well, there are no words to describe my despair of these rounds of golf that are just supposed to be a game. Nothing helped me overcome my dreadful feelings of failure that I once again have no adequately terrible words to describe. I am writing this in the vain hope that it may help me or someone else so that they might know they are not alone. THERE are alot of people with this story as I have found. It is an obsession drilled home in childhood under varying circumstances and are experienced in this terribly sole destroying way all the time. All I ever saw anywhere was the game of the winners. Let me tell you that there are 98 % of losers who suffer in silence and try anything to become a winner as the destruction of losing in the melt down towards the end becomes a self fullfilling prophecy until there is nothing left to try OR the pain of being defeated by the implosion of the mind and sole becomes to great. It is not because of the lack of talent, conversely it is the inability to overcome these all intensive power sucking emotions that intensify when the pressure starts or the winning line draws near. The winning for people like me NEVER comes when it counts for anything. Sad isn't it. I am a shell of a man at the age of 63 BUT...... there always seems to be a but in these awefull stories Aye! Well here's mine. I am now a Christian and whatever path has led me to Eternal life with our Heavenly Father through his Son, The Lord Jesus Is a very, very good path and we'll worth anything. I didn't intend to mention I became a Christian BUT since it is far more important than what disaster Golf played in my life I have said it. I was at a very low point in my life again 6 years ago and I got on my knees and said a prayer to God for help. I had a little radio and tuned in to the Christian station of which you will find one anywhere in Australia and did that constantly. It scared me, it fascinated me and I kept doing it. I hope that may help somebody while glorifying God for his love, mercy and power to what I thought was somebody that definitely didn't deserve it. God bless.

Hello, dear golf friends. I'm looking for videotaped, "CONDOR" golf holes scored.

[@ianwoollard2063]

Achieving a shot like any of these is my dream. In a video I saw of Gary Player he said he always aimed at the flag because if you don’t you’re never going to get it in. Every time I play now this is my strategy. A great compilation of golf

[@BaconFrisbee]

Oosthuizen's will always be favorite. First and only one I've seen on live TV, and he did it the right way - second shot on a par 5 in normal playing conditions.

[@larrykeene4733]

All of these are fairly impressive, but I think the award for best of all goes to Louis Oosthuizen at 7:08. It's one thing to go pin hunting and have it roll 15-20 feet to the hole, but to have it hit the front of a green and roll, I would have to guesstimate, probably 75 feet or so is quite another. That was incredible.

[@radorigami]

[@joconnell8145]

Jason Gore's shot was at Torrey Pines

[@howardbaxter2514]

Fun fact: the rarest feat one can obtain in golf is a Condor (-4). According to the PGA, this has happened only 4 times, all of which occured as hole-in-ones on par 5s. Though it has never happened, it is also possible to obtain such a feat by hitting a 2 on a par 6, or, by some actual miracle from God himself, a 3 on a par 7 (look up the par 7 in South Korea. The hole is about 1100 yards long from the back tees, and about 1000 yards long from the front ones).

[@BeefZone]

A man named Kevin Pon actually achieved a Condor (Dec 20, 2020) *2 on a 667yd Par 6* At Lake Chabot Golf Course in Oakland, CA. It's the only Par 6 West of the Mississippi.

[@jacklandon9933]

It is funny that almost every announcer couldn't figure out what to call it so they all called it both. Technically, it is a double eagle. Albatross is not official. However, those who are mathematically inclined will say that a double eagle should technically be 4 under par since and eagle is 2 under par. I prefer albatross because it does not offend my math sensibilities.

[@KnickKnack07]

IT has nothing to do with math but English. There are lots of words or phrases that are combinations of multiple words, and many mean something very different from simply adding the definitions of those words

[@jdavies]

I say throw technicality and "official" to the wind. Something that special deserves its own name. Albatross.

[@Investorpotamus]

[@nicholasosczypko2248]

Jack Landon if you say double bogey...what does that imply then? Your mathematical logic makes no sense in this case.

[@alexgandy2488]

Nicholas Osczypko you say double bogey because it’s 2+ and a bogey is 1+ double birdie for an eagle would make sense and so would triple birdie for 3-

"Greatest awkward hi-fives"

[@stevenchampion8137]

... yep good on you for a huge drive, but when you see albatrosses being made by holing a mid-iron? In his college days JB Holmes treated all reachable par fives as par fours and adjusted the par for the course (mentally) to reflect this. Having said all that, this is a great video!

1:25 was the 2011 Australian open which I went to, it was awesome because the presidents cup was played in Melbourne, so all the big players played in the Aussie open to get somr practice on Australian courses Tiger, Bubba, Couples, they all came and it was awesome!

[@sportsrook8282]

Why not call it a "Deagle"?

Probably because it's official name isn't a double eagle. A deagle would sound much better though.

[@hedonismunderstands2469]

[@KnickKnack07]

One more fucking time to all the lifelong fucking virgin idiots... You know why it is called a double eagle...because the guy who coined ALL the terms called it a double eagle.. That is the ORIGINAL term coined by the same guy who coined all the terms that YOU accept. The term albatross came AFTER. And I know you are trying to sound like some genius in math for once in your life...but this isn't a math issue. It is an English issue.

The foursome playing in front of us saw the ball bounce past them and yelled at the guys on the green to watch out!
