Happy Wednesday. A kid went viral for holing an impossible driver shot after sticking a tee in the putting green and blasting it into nearby trees, but golfers are furious about the stunt. The backwards-hat-wearing youngster created the wildest golf highlight of the year while committing a "three-putt of no-nos": damaging greens, slowing play, and hitting dangerous shots that could ricochet into someone's eye. The golf jury's unanimous ruling? Don't be these guys, no matter how many views it gets. ⬇️

📰 GOLF STORIES

⛳️ Seagull steals golfer’s wallet

A seagull at Pebble Beach literally stole a golfer's wallet, flew around taunting him with it, then dropped it directly into the ocean as the helpless victim screamed "drop the wallet!" The absurd heist happened at a course that already costs $675 for resort guests, making this the most expensive round in golf history. The poor golfer immediately collapsed to the ground after watching his cash, credit cards, and ID disappear into the Pacific. Only a bird could add insult to Pebble's injury. ⬇️

👀 The worst shot of all time

A golfer went viral for missing a one-foot tap-in for his first-ever eagle by leaving it SHORT of the hole, with Reddit commenters adding insult to injury by claiming he anchored his putter for a two-stroke penalty. The traumatizing yip turned what should have been a career highlight into a potential bogey while his "supportive" friends cackled behind the camera. ⬇️

🕺 KFT pro holes bunker shot, goes nuts

Christo Lamprecht holed a bunker shot on 18 to win his first Korn Ferry Tour event, then unleashed an epic double club toss celebration with his caddie that launched both clubs into the stratosphere simultaneously. The South African's textbook bunker shot "trick-trick-trickled" into the cup while everyone was watching playoff golf in Memphis, creating roars rarely heard on the Korn Ferry Tour. His reaction afterward? "I was like, 'what the heck just happened?'" The perfect summary for perfect chaos. ⬇️
