Watch: Texas sophomore Cole Hammer’s pool-side trick shot

Texas sophomore Cole Hammer is passing the time stuck at home by making trick shots.

Cole Hammer has some serious skill.

As a freshman at Texas he maintained a sub-70 scoring average and tallied consecutive T-1 finishes in the spring of 2019. In a sophomore campaign cut short by the coronavirus pandemic, Hammer had two top-10 finishes for the Longhorns.

Before heading to Austin, the Houston native and former world No. 1 amateur played in the 2015 U.S. Open at Chambers Bay, was a member of the 2017 U.S. Junior Presidents Cup team, earned co-medalist honors at the 2018 U.S. Amateur before losing in the semifinals to eventual champion Viktor Hovland and won the 2018 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball.

His talent on the course also translates to backyard, pool-side trick shots.

A+ effort. 10/10 creativity. The only question now is, what will Hammer do next?
