Robert MacIntyre looked disgusted with his tee shot on the par-3 14th at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, then it went in for an ace

Robert MacIntyre Los Angeles New Orleans Zurich Classic

AVONDALE, La. — We’ve all been there. You hit a shot, look where it’s going, then hang your head in disgust as it flies miles from your target. But when you get up to the ball, it’s 100 times better than expected.

Well, Robert MacIntyre had this happen to him Thursday at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, but on another level.

On the par-3 14th at TPC Louisiana, the Scottsman hit his tee shot and immediately looked displeased. He hung his head and walked over to his bag. To his credit, the ball did land several yards before the green.

Then it got a hop. Then it kept rolling. Then it found the bottom of the cup.

When the camera panned back to the tee, MacIntyre looked borderline confused.

Then elation set in.
