While many of you have YOUR favorite golf shots out there, I would like to present the GolfNow.com list of Professional Golf Shot candidates. Though your chip shot from the parking lot of your local club, over a Buick, through a chain-link fence, that bounced off your own golf cart which, landed in the hole is amazing; it’s not applicable here.

A Dozen Possible Contenders:

• Gene Sarazen and his Double Eagle at the 1935 Masters
• Robert Gamez eagles 176-yard final hole at Bay Hill over water to win it.
• Tom Watson’s birdie chip at the 1982 U.S. Open on the 17th hole.
• Bob Tway holes a bunker shot on the final hole of the 1986 PGA Championship.
• Larry Mize pitches in from off the green in a playoff to win the 1987 Masters.
• Tiger Woods hits a hole-in-one from 155 yards at TPC Scottsdale with a 9-iron.
• Tiger Woods hits out from 218 yards out of the sand, over water at the 18th hole of the 2000 Canadian Open.
• Constantino Rocca makes a 90-foot putt from off the green to force a playoff at the 1995 British Open.
• Craig Parry sinks a 176-yard eagle on the final hole of the 2004 Doral to win a playoff with Scott Verplank.
• Ben Hogan hits a 1-iron within six feet on the 18th at Merion in 1950. It’s the most famous photo of a swing in golf. Hogan pars the hole and goes on to win in a playoff.
• Arnold Palmer drives the green to 20 feet from the pin from 346 yards at the 1960 U.S. Open. It starts a run of five birdies in six holes.
