And that's why Geoff Ogilvy called him the best player in the world

I love the Masters because they set the pins on Sunday so that shots might just drop. Awesome. Now go make eagle Phil!

[FATC1TY]

My mind is blown.. I've started drinking since noon, and that my friends... man, thats good stuff. I love this.

[kemau]

[Ranger Rick]

In your life, have you ever! King Louis is in the building! Albatross!!!! Come on you beauty!!!

[kduffy]

That shot will never be forgotten!!!!!

[walterjay25]

Big save by Phil.

This is Louis's tournament to lose at this point.

Wow! What a shot. They can't EVER get those high-fives right, though.

Nice par putt for Phil.

Oosthuizen is going to take this thing!

I agree with you. He would probably be the most underrated 20something multiple major champion of all time if it happens.

Louis just had a double eagle!   He is some player.  I remember seeing him on the European Tour and saw that he would be special.  Sad for Tiger because he cannot keep up with young guys like Louis.   Osstheizen's alignment and swing are almost perfect for power and finding fairways.  He hit 80% of FW at the Open!

[AFcelica]

cant wait to try to replicate that shot in tigerwoods 14 next year! go Louis!!!

[QWKDTSN]

Oosthuizen must be having an out of body experience right now!!

[bepo]

as a huge Phil fan

Gotta agree. Louis - come on  

[2659edward]

Surfing the masters.org site earlier, I noticed Luke Donald eagled 15 today. There was a video clip linked to his expanded score card. Driver, 3wood, Driver.....you figure it out.



On another note I love that we can watch the leaders play all 18...if not we would have never saw Oosties double eagle...

[ClarkGrswld4]

that might go down as the greatest shot in golf history if he wins

[MtlJeff]

brutal 2nd at #2 from Mickelson. Guys have been holing that shot all day from the fairway in the groups before him

I have changed my avatar in respect

Golfers are horrible at connecting with high-fives.

[Frankie Lob Wedge]

At this rate could Louis beat Jack's record in 6 to 7 years?  Incredible.

Please don't tarnish an amazing shot with your Euro fanatical delusions.Good lord you've already changed your avatar. You are the poster child for the euro homers. But keep it up it makes it fun.

If he goes on to win it should have been put in Butler Cabin, methinks. Too bad, really.

Oosthuizen (I still can't get his name spelled right) isn't even European.

Umm...Geoff Ogilvy is Australian and Louis Oosthuizen is South African. Last time I checked neither of those countries are anywhere near Europe. In fact, Augusta is closer to Europe.

[QWKDTSN]

LOL

[Rheenendal]

I've had this avatar for months . I played a bit with Loius as a junior, he is absolutely phenomenal. He's biggest weapon is definitely his temperament though. He soaks up pressure like a sponge and is always 100% focused. Holding thumbs that he can do it today and I'll be up all night watching. He finished last season strong and I was hoping he would have a great year.

LOL. Not a normal ball, Ding Dong. THAT ball, the one Louie hit in the cup and tossed into the crowd!! Drink one with you...

[SergioKSU]

That shot happened so fast and so early in the round a lot of people are not going to fully grasp how spectacular it was.  Obviously we all know that a double eagle is amazing but this shot might go down as the greatest in the history of the game if he ends up hanging on.  Not to mention Hanson dropped a shot on the first so out of no where Oosthuizen has a 2 shot lead.  I still think Phil is going to make a run and win but that shot was still something to be hold.  AWESOME Masters thus far!
