I saw this on X.

If someone offered you $2.6 million dollars if you stayed on the green on 17 at TPC but you owed them $50,000, if you missed, would you take it?

One shot.

I've played that hole 3x, twice on the green and once in the bunker. I'd take that bet in a heartbeat. (on a calm day)

Can we be partners if you win? If you do not make it I would be out.

Yardage to the center of the green?

Looks to be between 128 to 137 depending on the tee box.

Check out the yardage book.

I would totally take that bet if it’s sequential. ie. If I miss shot 1 owe $50k. I continue to shoot. Each miss another $50k lost. But, but when I get one on the green I get the $2.6M and owe the $$& balance of my previous losses. I’m a crap golfer but I would take the shots at that yardage 135 yards, probably a 7 iron, and hope to land softly. Heck, I’d do it for $500K. Get 1 of 10 shots. But at the 9th shot I’d change my shorts to Depends.

Yes,
I played it 6 times and missed once. always played from the pro tee.
I like the odds.

[Rwirish]

Yes, piece of cake.

[coleprice]

Absolutely. I'd practice (and practice and practice) the shot, so that the odds are VERY HEAVILY in my favor. Life's a gamble and you can control your destiny on this opportunity . . . Just don't choke!

Absolutely. But I have a Moon Wood. You may not have heard of that club, but it goes high, and I mean high, and lands straight down, yes I’d take that bet.

Yes. I was paired with three guys the time I played it. Three of us parred the hole and one birdied.

Depends. Is the $2.6 million tax free?
