‘The golf moment I will remember most from 2019 is ____________.’
From Tiger winning the Masters to an Irishman winning the Open Championship at Royal Portrush to the U.S. staging a massive comeback in the Presidents Cup, there were many incredible moments in golf during the 2019 calendar year.
Before we look ahead at what’s to come in 2020, we asked our Caddie Network social media followers to share to fill in the blank to the following question: “The golf moment I will remember most from 2019 is ____________.”
Here’s a collection of our favorite answers…
Tiger w his son Charlie walking triumphantly to the clubhouse at Augusta. The pure joy on both the father and son’s faces.
And then Tiger unleashing a huge high five with a patron.
Probably hit that harder than any gym exercise in his life.— Garrett Johnston (@JohnstonGarrett) January 1, 2020
“@TigerWoods win was special at @TheMasters. The putt he cozied to kick in on #9 still blows my mind. @ShaneLowryGolf winning the @open was awesome on home soil. But most of all @ClubProGuy interview meltdown. Guy reached his mental breaking point. Hope he bounces back #punchout” — @Juniorseedsman

“Meeting and talking with Barbara Nicklaus at Sanford Champions tour event.” — @CarsleyGolf
“Jim Herman’s win at the Barbasol, when his kids and wife came out. He thanked them for coming and you could see how much it meant to him… and them. We always hear about the Tigers/Rorys/Brooks’, but Tour is made up of less famous guys w/families who love them. It was a compelling moment.” — @Barraman4evr
“My 14-year-old son’s first eagle.” — @bradpmonk
“My 9-year-old son (twin) making 1st birdie… was awesome!!” — @Aaron_Marquette

“My buddy draining a 40’ putt on 18 to close the round — walk off style!” — @MarkfasanoR
“Tiger’s tee shot on No. 16 at Augusta on Sunday. Tap-in birdie, and we all knew for sure that he was actually going to win the thing.” — @evanaitkens
“Gary Woodland’s birdie on 18 in U.S. Open.” — @hanknelson77
“The ANWA at Augusta is great. Now time for them to hold all three rounds there to further legitimize it. Two rounds at another course, with a practice round between second and third rounds, makes it seem more like an exhibition than an actual event.” — @PopsandSunshine
