The list of the greatest golf shots of all time is one long list indeed. It is too long, of course, to fit into one article, but there are some shots that almost every golfer in the world would surely include in their top five. Choosing the \u2018best of all time\u2019 of anything is a rather subjective pursuit, but everybody can recognise a great golf shot when they see one.<\/p>\n

In 2005 at Augusta, Tiger Woods produced one of the most magnificent and significant shots golf has ever seen<\/strong>. It was on the edge of the green on the 16th<\/sup> and, with the most delicate of chips, he lobbed his ball up onto the green and let gravity do the rest of the work. The ball seemed to have stopped dead on the edge of the cup for about a second, only to drop into the hole to the amazement of Woods, his caddy and everybody watching. It was almost as if he was filming the new Nike advert right there on the course (indeed, the shot did go on to feature in a Nike TV advert a while later).<\/p>\n
