During the opening round of the 2024 Texas Children's Houston Open, Padraig Harrington successfully tried an innovative way to play the shot, which received huge praise from fans online.
Harrington finished T54 after carding an even-par 70 on Thursday at Memorial Park. He made four birdies and four bogeys during the round, and the remaining holes went for par. However, the recovery that came on par 5, the 16th hole, will be remembered by golf fans for a long time.
On the 16th hole, Harrington, who now plays mostly on the Senior Tour, fired a 326-yard tee shot, but it lost its direction, landing on the left side of the fairway below the small pine tree. He didn't have many options to make a clean shot without hitting the tree again, so he decided to bend down, and the experiment was successful as he hit it at a distance of around 120 yards.
Following his round, the two-time Open Championship winner shared his insights on Twitter. He wrote:
