Worse hole ever "in my opinion" was in my first FSGA (Florida State Golf Association) Tournament. Actually it was a qualifier for the State Mid-Am Championship. The course was Hunters Green...length 6,979...slope 134...Designer, Tom Fazio.

On the first tee (par 4, 392 yds, dogleg left),

Shot 1) I hit a three wood. It was 7:30 am and playing right back into the morning sun...they had a forecaddie down the fairway because they said it was hard to track your ball into the sun. Well I push my 3 wood right but everyone thinks I am fine possibly in the right rough. I am nervous enough but now we get down there and the forecaddie says he never saw my ball. So we spend our allotted 5 mintues searching to no avail. So back to the tee I go.

Shot 2) Lost ball penalty (stroke and distance)

Shot 3) Now I am teeing off again (3rd shot) in front of other players etc... Now to make sure I don't go right I over do it and snap it left.

Shot 4) It takes me a few minutes to find my ball and it is in a horrible lie. I hack it out about 20 yards into another horrible lie.

Shot 5) I now hack it out to about 120 yards but it is now in deep rough (course was set up pretty tough)

Shot 6) I come up short of the green out of the rough

Shot 7) Chip up to about 8 feet

Shot 8) Miss putt

Shot 9) Make putt

So I am 5 over par after the first hole....needeless to say I had a terrible day and did not qualify for the championship.
