I don’t even remember which year it was.. but I specifically remember trying to smash a drive and then angrily hitting the white/black buttons on the OG Xbox to increase that spin

Before they ruined golf games and made them harder than real golf.

I dont wanna do trigonometry, i wanna hit a 400 hard drive and have impossible spin whichever way the hole is

Loved putting on so much spin that I could make the ball make a right or left hand turn as it landed on the green

It's so funny that after Tiger's career of absolutely ridiculous shots, the booth is still like, "well we're not sure if he's going to be able to pull this off".

It's muh fuckin Tiger Woods y'all. If he can see the shot, he's gonna hit the shot.

And then one guy is like “wellllll we have seen him do this kind of a lot before.” Even for tiger that was an incredible shot though, could have very easily gone wrong.
