Russell Knox, 2016: 9
Shanks a lot! Russell Knox had a disastrous third-round showing at the 17th back in 2016, an assortment of follies that included the unwelcome Roy ‘Tin Cup” McAvoy yips. The Jacksonville-area resident decided against playing a drop after his first ball found the drink, taking another go from the tee box—which ended up being a direct-right shank. He tried again from the tee and added his third ball to the eventual scuba diver’s collection. He finally played his fourth tee shot from the drop and got on the green. A two-putt later and he went from top 10 to the ceiling of the top 50.
