    he was off the green, hence the flag being left in

    also, this is the longest putt in the world, but he clearly had multiple chances:






    phelps putt doesnt even officially count as a putt

    If it's a putt, why is the flag in? Isn't that a stroke penalty?

    Sorry, I didn't read your post first. There have certainly been many longer strokes that dropped involving a putter that weren't on the actual green.

    putting off the green is a "Texas wedge"...in texas

    Phelps was playing with Paul Casey a dog stole Caseys ball from the green as he was lining up a eagle putt anyone have a video of that?
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) — While lining up an eagle putt on the 12th green, Paul Casey ended up in the "ruff."

    The Englishman was 20 feet from the cup on his third hole Friday at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship when a dog ran onto the green and ran off with his ball.



    "It's the weirdest thing I've ever had happen on a golf course," said Casey, who was playing at Kingsbarns. "I noticed the dog on the 12th tee and he sort of followed us down the fairway before taking a real liking to my golf ball."

    Casey, who is partnered with Olympic great Michael Phelps in the pro-am event, was ready to play with another ball but a spectator stopped the pooch near the 13th tee and recovered the original.

    A European Tour rules official inspected both and Casey was allowed to play his original
