Watch Alvaro Quiros’ tap-in putt go in, and then bounce back out: video

During the first round of the Portugal Open, Alvaro Quiros got an extremely unlucky break. His tap-in putt for par at the par-5 12th hole was almost dead-centre and yet the ball somehow jumped back out.

Yes, normally means the cup is not inserted correctly. Golf’s a bitch.
