I was playing the best of wgt stroke. On hole 2 (par 5, hole #6 at Congressional if I am not wrong), I tried to reach the green on my second shot but was a bit short. Nevertheless I was very lucky, see (automatic or camera 5 are nice)

Replay: lucky shot

The ball stoped finally in 40-50% rough but only at 52 yds from the hole, so I knew that birdie was possible so no problem. Here is then my next shot... (automatic and camera 4 are nice)

Replay: invisible branch

WGT wanted my ball, they got it lol

Can you have a look above that piece of water, look like there is a bunch of invisible branches :) .

Sweet shot off the rock face, very lucky indeed. Bounced off the wall maybe a half inch above the water! Camera 3 also displays a wonderful angle of the shot.

I have gotten bounces off there as well and got lucky myself one time.

As regards to the invisible branch, that has been a well know spot for a while now. But i remember wgt saying they were in the process of fixing it. I guess the money from water balls outweighed the choice to fix it. I have s/shots of this more close up I will post later.

Beside reporting the bug, this is also an experiment for me. We will see.

Man, that's just plain rude. Did the drop put you back in the same place and what did you do from there if it did?

Indeed, the drop put me back around the same place. Needless to say that I didn't try and quit the round. I guess what you have to do is to hit backward toward the fairway instead of attacking the pin (my shot which went to water was a birdie shot and if not, the par was at least saved).

Here are a few s/shots i took a long while back.

In the second photo you can see a dark dot in the sky when my ball hits an invisible tree. That spec in the picture is part of the tree that grows over the body of water, magically ofc
