Russell Henley Eagles With an 185-Yard Heat-Seeking Missile That Breaks the Hole

Yes, it's OK to hi-five now. That's what hi-fives are for.

There are a few approaches to getting at the hole in golf. One is to lay the ball nicely on the green and scoot it around until you hole-out. The other is to go straight for the hole by launching an all-out aerial assault with a heat-seeking missile. Russell Henley during today's 2017 Masters decided to go for the latter and it was so spot on, and landed with such force, that hilariously officials had to stop everything to inspect and adjust the hole with various archaic contraptions.

Henley was also the last person to make it into the Masters. Yes, it's OK to hi-five now. That's what hi-fives are for.

Correction: An earlier headline read that the golfer's name was "Russell Henry," when the golfer's actual name is "Russell Henley."
