Love how fellow pros and competitors gather round and give their congratulations.

What I love about golf is opponents celebrating and being genuinely happy for the other player

Great shots, accompanied by lots of “The Price Is Right!” music.

I know they're going in, but I'm still on the edge of my seat every single time

I'll never get over at how well the cameramen follow the ball.

In 1983 at Royal Birkdale on the 1st day of the British open, US golfer and 1981 winner Bill Rogers got an albertros and I was working as a scoreboard operator and lucky enough to have witnessed it.

Witnessed my brother’s double eagle back in September, 2017. I was actually taking a leak under a pine tree when he struck the ball and I turned around towards the hole just as the ball was approaching the green. He was ~235 yards out in the rough and hit a 5-wood over a pond and it drilled the stick. Couldn’t see the ball drop into the cup from our vantage point, but we had heard the sound of the ball striking what we believed was the pin. I figured the ball had likely ricocheted off of the pin into the woods behind the green, or that it would be somewhere in the surrounding rough. When we drove up to the hole, I was looking around and could not see a ball anywhere. I stood on the front of the green as my brother pulled the cart around to the back of the green. I SO wanted to look in the cup to see if the ball was in there, but knew I had to let him check. We were both giddy at the possibility of the ball being in the hole. He slowly approached the hole, stopped, and then leaned forward and peered into the cup. Then he suddenly grabbed the pin and yanked it and the ball out of the hole while screaming “It’s in the hole!” We must have high-fived and hugged each other a million times that day. It was easily the greatest golf experience I’ll ever have and the greatest shot I’ll ever see. So now, just about every time we play a par 5, when he’s hitting his second shot, I can’t help but think, “He’s actually got a legitimate chance for double eagle here... I mean...I’ve already seen him do it once!”

I notice many of these shots were made with a 4-iron. And I draw the conclusion that me not having that club in my bag is the only reason that I've never made an eagle.

Pretty much the only sport where your competitors get as much of a kick out of a great piece of play as you do individually.That's why golf is such a great sport imho.

[BOWENSblog]

Pretty impressive. Can't wait for golf season for some good healthy exercise

[eiserntorsphantomoftheoper]

I triple bogeyed a par 1..
That's known as a "carp"

[iTzTruth_Gaming]

I’m surprised there is even a top ten for this.. impressive European tour

[Galatzo]

I did this twice




I mean, is my second time watching

[codycunnington]

There’s more awkward high fives in this video than albatrosses. Love it

[joelwrigley]

The contact o. All these irons sounds amazing. Like listening to the bat crack on home runs

[happycamper]

The game has changed so much lately. In the stone age an albatross wasnt made with a mid iron but usually a fairway wood.

I love watching these because they show just what a huge part plain old luck plays in this game...I've been hacking away at this game for over 30 years and I still stink... but it is fun to keep trying!!!

“It looks like a mirac—IT’S IN THE HOLE! IT’S IN THE HOLE!” 😎

[starpravesh]

I was waiting for a 6 foot long wings to casually fly by and gulp the golf balls but I guess that's not the albatross they are talking about...
