Anybody who has every watched golf on television has witnessed a pro miss a four-foot putt that even he or she would tell you should have easily found the bottom of the cup.
But missing a tap-in putt that is no more than two inches from the hole? Well, that has to be a first.
Meet Haru Nomura of Japan. She is representing her country in the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, and all she has to do is tap in this ball that’s a mere inches away from the cup, and she’ll par the 11th hole.
Let’s see if she can do it:

Despite the putting gaffe, Nomura was tied for 12th and just four shots off the lead following the round. And hey, it’s still more honorable than creating a media shitstorm after lying about getting robbed at gunpoint.
