Rory McIlroy & Justin Thomas try to make a hole-in-one with 50 balls

[@SeanMQuinn-zx5dt]

Can we talk about the fact that JT stuck one inside a foot, immediately dropped another ball, and managed to get closer? Perfect example of why these guys are pros!

This makes me feel how much I need to appreciate the only hole in one I have had as an amateur before I watched I was sure one of them would get it

[@ultrabluesea9182]

But you also have to remember that they only showed the good shots, when you hear what they say you know there were also a lot of bad shots

[@JunixZzHD]

@@ultrabluesea9182 And you also have to remember "bad" in their sense is a good shot for the majority of us. Especially in a situation like this where they deem everything outside a gimme as a "poor" shot. There's no way an amateur would be able to do what JT did to stick it within a couple of CM back to back.

[@samreynolds1988]

@@JunixZzHD agreed 👍sticking it to within 10 ft most shots is just ridiculous

@@ultrabluesea9182 Not really. 88/100 within 20', 54/100 within 10', 31/100 within 5', 18/100 within 3'... I a bogey golfer, but struggle with accuracy. If I had 100 shots at that distance, I doubt I would put more than 5 within 5' if that many. They had that many within a few inches.

Love these hole in one with 50 shots videos. It really exposes the almost unreasonable confidence pros have. They expect to make it and the ultra competitive nature pulls out the frustration as well.

[@hughgurney8686]

It's interesting how they seem to attribute their lack of success to something lacking in their own skill rather than it simply being a rare event (1 in 2,500) that will be difficult to achieve. The frustration seems to set in very early considering they've only hit 50 balls.

[@geuros]

​@@hughgurney8686 well that's exactly how the brain works. If you set too difficult a goal it will become very frustrating which is why it's wise to take small steps. These are however pros and they have about the best chances to make this happen given 50 shots, but the exact same thing happens to them - they hit a lot of amazing shots they'd love to do in a tournament, but here they don't get that endorphin response because even though they were amazing, they were also failures at their goal.

[@gl4333]

Hard props to the production team. This was so well made with the filming, music, etc. Spot on! McIlroy and JT have great chemistry too

[@1FastC5ZO6]

So well made that the production team forgot about the Rolex clock in the background. The original video was significantly cut up, edited and mixed in order to make it a more hyped up and entertaining video.

I think The Match has shown we could use more varied and casual golf entertainment. The only thing holding it back is that the focus still is on competitiveness and fund raising which is fine, but I like the heart-to-heart, hearing players and celebrities discussing golf as life lessons, things like this that there's rarely any opportunity for. Like a podcast where a round of golf breaks out.

[@VarunKumar-cb5hm]

Starts of with a powerful positive statement " only get 1 first shot to get a hole in one" then goes to self-hatred "Not even close... I'm yelling at a ball that's 20ft short." - Golf is the biggest rollercoaster ride of mental frustration and strength. Prove me wrong.

[@scottcarroll9201]

Rory said he hasn't made a hole in one in six years. That's wrong. I personally witnessed him make a hole in one five years ago. It was in a practice round for the 2016 Masters. Hole 16 at Augusta and I was in the bleachers. The pin was cut in the front middle of the green. Rory hit it about 10 feet past the hole and used the slope to bring it back down. As the ball began to trickle down and got closer and closer the murmers of the crowd grew and grew. Thinking about being smack in the middle of those roars when that ball dropped still gives me chills to this day.

The thing I did learn from this is that I am much more patient to practice every day and do nothing spectacular and not get frustrated because I’m committed to improving. Might it be that these guys refusal to except mediocrity is what pushes them to be two of the best players in the world. I mean seriouslyI found myself questioning there manhood. After thinking about it for a minute that might be what separates the winners from the losers they only except winning. Watch this over and watch the attitude it doesn’t seem practical but in the bigger scope of things maybe that’s how they pushed so far forward so quickly. Thanks for the video very telling
