Transcript
This video has gone insanely viral and has the golf world completely against one another. This right here is Ethan Good, better of the Stanford University good tier, going through what looks like a pretty normal putting routine, fixing some bumps on the green, taking a step back to read the putt from behind the hole. After reading the putt from behind the hole, pulls out his yardage book, which I'm sure has some notes, maybe the landscape of the green, takes a couple looks at that. Then we go through this. Ethan steps behind the ball to read the putt again. He's making sure his line is correct. You know, nothing too terribly wrong there. Takes a step bad. By the way, this is absolutely no cuts. Pulls his coin off the ball, takes another look at best, standing over the putt again, gonna pull his putter back, take a couple practice strokes. You guys are watching it with me. Now we're taking the practice strokes right yes. Yep, one, two, then we approach the ball, and then we're finally ready to hit. One minute and tier seconds to leave the ball low. Now what some people are not talking about in this clip is this was in a five hole playoff, winner advances to the National Championship. Better let's also make this very clear, not a single person about to comment on this post has ever had a putt that has mattered as much as this one. So here's my question to you. Being that this was in a five hole playoff where the winner advances to the national championship, was this acceptable? Or was this entirely too much, and should he have been penalized?
