My Greatest Shot | Seve Ballesteros

Seve Ballesteros was famous for playing with no fear, a man who never held back and was willing to try the unimaginable and, more often than not, pull it off as well.

The 16th tee shot is a blind one, but once again Ballesteros reached for the big stick, despite having a two-shot lead to protect. Sure enough, his drive went veering off to the right and ended up in a temporary car park.

The crowds flocked to find it and Ballesteros was greeted with the news his ball had come to rest underneath the front bumper of a parked car. But that day the rules smiled on Seve, and he was granted a free drop away from the cars in an area with flattened rough due to it doubling as a car park all week.
