Professional golf moments/shots of the year

Now that the Tour Championship is over, it's time to look back over the best moments/shots of the year. Seems like most any event had a special moment, but for me....

Shot of the year:

1. Tiger's chip-in on 16 at the Masters on Sunday. Maybe as much luck as skill, but it was a magic moment that won't soon be forgotten in Masters lore.

2. Phil's flop on 18 Monday at the PGA. Not overly impressive, except that it clinched Phil's second major title...they just don't make short games much better than his.

3. Padraig Harrington's 60 footer to win the Barclay's Classic in June. A triple breaker that just tracked its way into the hole for his first PGA Tour win.

4. At the FUNAI Classic, Lucas Glover's holeout from the sand on 18 for his first PGA Tour win.

t5. Tiger's tee shots Saturday at Doral on 16 and Sunday at the Western on 10...incredible power on the shots combined with (lucky?) amazing accuracy.

I'll hold off on moments or events, to let others get in their choices...feel free to address the "best of" anything on Tour this season....other tours as well, so as to not leave out anything. I didn't have a chance to watch as much European Tour coverage as I normally would this year (no TGC ), so it'll be up to others to bring up their best shots and moments.

One that quickly comes to mind is Tiger's birdie putt on the 71st hole at Doral. It kinda showed that he was "back", and it was a very exciting match-up with Phil.

Agreed on the 1st two. Is the last one you mention the one where he drove to that little path of fairway right up to the green? That one would be on my list, though it was prob. more luck than anything else.

Reminds me: Birdie Kim's holeout from the sand on 18 for her US Women's Open win.

EDIT: Oops... just noticed this thread is about the PGA Tour. Sorry. Still, what a shot.

Definitely the most talked about shot this year.
