Smile Hardest shot on in golf?

What does everyone think the hardest shot is in golf? Your on the 18th hole of a major needing:

(1) a 8 foot downhill big left to right putt to get to a playoff

(2) Needing to get up and down form a pot bunker on 18 to make it a playoff?

(3) Needed to stick a 1 iron stiff into the wind?

(4) Just hitting the ball in the **** fairway is the hardest part lol?

(5) Other

I think its number 1. That putt would be impossible to me

well (5) other could be anything: it could be back on the tee for your 3rd on a par 4 450 yards needing a birdie to force a playoff after losing your first ball.

Yours faithfully

(5) a 50 yard bunker shot from a downhill, fried egg lie, close to the edge so you can't get a decent stance...
... maybe throw some wind in there for good measure, and maybe a couple of rocks behind the ball too, yeah that'd be pretty tough

it can always get worse....
I'm going with #5 too,
Big pot bunker.... fried egg lie, pile of leaves dumped on top, a boulder thrown in, rocks covering it and also a tree just fell down from the strong wind right on top of your ball.

For me 1,2 and 3 are nothing I have encountered. 4 is difficult enough for me, but I am going with 5. A 20 yard chip over a bunker on hardpan is the shot that make me shiver. It will usually end up as a nice bladed shot over the green, or 2 or 3 stubs until I get on

I think having to get up & down with Driver from 8" rough from 270 over a stand of 50' pines and a lake into a 40 MPH gale to a tucked pin, island green after I just sprained both wrists and pulled a groin trying to hit out of the junk on the last hole... Yeah I think that would be hard.

I can't figure out a way to work her into this scenario without getting deleted.

I am gonna go with the 18th at Sawgrass, second shot with a right to left wind. Although the 17th at Sawgrass with a huge tail wind would be tougher.

I would have to say 'Other'

A severe ball below my feet lie is the hardest for me.

hardest shot, IMO, is a putt to win/get into a playoff. When you have one shot and its do or die, the NEVERS come out big time. Or course it has only happend once and that was just a inter-club tourny, but I had my heart halfway in my throat. 3- putted of course .....LOL....

A downhill Lie where you have to pitch it on Agusta National Greens when the pin is only 3 paces on the green and it slopes away from you into the creek
