WATCH: Lucas Glover missed a 19-inch putt off the heel of the putter

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


Lucas Glover had a 19-inch putt between him and shooting the second round of 10-under 60 in Round 2 of the 2016 Wyndham Championship. That's all Glover needed for par on the final hole at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, N.C.

In fact, the putt is typically so automatic that a major golf website had already published a story saying Glover had shot 60.

Then Glover missed the putt. We warn you that you may want to ask young children to leave the room before viewing the footage.

The 2009 U.S. Open winner, 10 under par on the round, booted the putt of the absolute heel of the blade, missing to the right. Fortunately, Glover made the bogey putt coming back to shoot what is still a very good 9-under 61.
