  Or maybe when loading for your putt the server knew it was you and decided not to put it in at all.

  Absolutely... Conversely though.. Sometimes the server feels bad for me... That is, I'm playing like crap, and I hit a putt terribly that somehow finds the bottom of the jar..(it does this just to keep me playing and thus keep the advertising $$ rolling in)

  I watched the replay and I tend to agree with the OP about his putt...It caught at least 1/2 of the hole and only rolled 1 foot long...If nothing else, it should have lipped out..

  Personally, I think that WGT is getting tired of all the complaints about super-low scores and they have effectively made the hole smaller...

  ok making the holes smaller is the most rubish i have ever heard lol.

  Take a look at his putt..

  http://www.wgt.com/gameclient.aspx?view=showReplay&JSON={%20%22GUID%22%20%3A%20%22da2a5d56-894b-42cc-9ab4-9ef000b4797c%22%2C%20%22Brand%22%20%3A%20%22undefined%22%20}

  It's hit with virtually perfect speed, and the entire ball passes over the confines of the hole...It's unexplainable how it didn't go in, or at least lip out..

  During my own games,I have seen similar happenings recently, and that is why I commented on his post...

   

  i will tell u that it is unlucky but it didnt go over the hole just missed it.

  I looked at it as well.  The trail appears wider than the ball and makes it appear the ball went right over the hole, when in reality it was just off the lip, nothing that I haven't seen a thousand times before, my suggestion is to get over it.

  Agreed.  The ball travelled over the outside edge of the hole... too fast to lipout.  Bottom-line, the ball was hit to hard to respond to any contact with the cup.  Even if the correct distance had been hit on contact the ball would not have dropped.

  The solution to your problem:

  I must agree..If you view it from angle #2 ( an angle from behind the putt line) and increase ur screen size ( if possible) you will see it went on the edge with to much momentum to be affected. Your pin hit hilarious (a victim of it) but common, and theres actually a replay of a ball hitting the water on Kawai #17 and Hopping , mind you, over 2 yrds of weeds and rolling 44 feet onto the back of the green. Honestly, I think The I.T. fellas leave such illusions to make you laugh. other wise people would be throwing their computers out the windows..LOL.

  But geez, Jerry.  The US government told us the "official" truth about what happened....AND they even got the bad guy!

  I mean, if you can't trust the US government, then who can you trust?
