The traditions at Augusta are endless, but one of the most entertaining and unique is the tradition of players skipping shots across the pond at the par three 16th hole during practice rounds. Well, patrons got a treat this year when Vijay Singh stepped up, skipped his ball across the pond and knocked it right in the hole for an ace! I'm sure Vijay would prefer this take place on Thursday or Sunday, but a great moment for everyone that witnessed it. The quality is pretty bad but you definitely feel like you're standing there watching this unfold! Enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GKSJOSsExE&feature=player_embedded

Yes, the quality is not that good. It looks more like something that I would shoot. It in no way does justice to Augusta National, but it does give those that have never been there a slight idea what the experience is like.

Well, it wasn't an ace. You see on practice days they play the hole from the regular tees and then they move up to the edge of the pond for the traditional skip shot. Every group does it in all of the practice rounds. So, since it isn't from the traditional tees, it really isn't anything but a great trick shot.

I was there when it happened just behind the green. It was a combination of skill and luck, but was very awesome to witness. The roar of the crowd was much louder than on the camera, way to go VJ.
