VIDEO / This is one of the luckiest golf shots you’ll ever see
Spain’s Nacho Elvira got a little lucky with his third shot into the par-5 9th hole during the first round of the Nedbank Golf Challenge in Sun City, South Africa.
Nacho’s approach shot went over the green and looked destined for the water hazard but it took a bounce off a rock and ricochet back on to the green.

Nacho, who is probably more comfortable hitting chip shots got down in two putts to make par and finish his round at 2-under par.
It’s not quite as lucky as Darren Clarke’s amazing shot back in 2005 bu impressive all the same. Here is Clarke’s shot again if you have never seen it before. Or if you just want to be amazed all over again.
‘Nacho hitting chip shots.’
I see what you did there 🙂
David. I think you’re one of the few that did. You rock. 🙂
