'World's Worst Golfers' Take on TPC Sawgrass

Many amazing things came out of the 1980s, but maybe none more so than the World's Worst Avid Golfer contest held at TPC Sawgrass.
It's when we met then 31-year-old Angelo Spagnolo, who put on the performance of a lifetime. No spoilers here, but once you see what Angelo did at the famous 17th island green, you probably won't feel so bad about your own game.

“Ran out of balls” - story of my life

[@protamine4]

An old duffer's trick is to steal as many range balls as you can before the round.

[@jeremyc9593]

@@protamine4 Lol. Yeah, I used to play a course that had a driving range that conveniently pointed towards the 15th fairway, which is about the time I'm running out, and the longer hitters could hit range balls close enough to that hole that we could "borrow" a few to get through the round. I did always return the balls... well, the ones that made it through to the end at least.

[@Wherebutcherat]

5:48 after 27 balls in the water Angelo made a 66.....on just 17 alone

Whenever I have a bad round of golf, I'm just gonna come back and watch this video.

[@protamine4]

I have a friend who is a pretty good golfer who usually shoots low 80s or even high 70s on municipal courses. His family bought him a round of golf at Valhalla outside Louisville, the home of many major PGA tournaments. The club required a caddy be employed with the round. There were multiple men's tees from which to choose and he did not hit from the professional one furtherest back. With the help of a caddy he shot an 18 hole round of 107. He didn't seem upset or surprised but said he did the best he could but the course was so long, full of hazards, and the green was shaved thin and hard to putt.

[@mrdavies09]

They're having fun and they get to play at Sawgrass. A definite win-win!

[@cscheatum]

This video is a national treasure

[@charlieodom9107]

He made a 12 footer for a 66....ON ONE HOLE!!!! I have never laughed so hard in my freaking life!!!!

[@11855alan]

Too much! When the putt dropped, which was a good putt, I thought a 66, damn! Then he said from the one hole 😂

You haven't played a PGA course either!!! I'm guessing you aren't near this bad, but PGA courses are meant to humble the world's best golfers! Shooting under 100 on a PGA course is a pretty damn good round. P.S....I don't mean any PGA course either. Play one right when it is prepped for the pros, and play from the tips!
