Hardest Hole in Golf?

THE Sports News Channel on YouTube:
Five of the world’s greatest golfers have tried hitting balls 22 floors up from the Royal Bridge Suite at Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai.
Their challenge was to to be nearest the pin on a nine meter by five meter floating green anchored just off shore in the Arabian Gulf.
As golfing tournaments go, this one is pretty extreme.
Just one hole, but what a hole.
A little green but not much , rough, etc.

Sweden’s Henrik Stenson, who’s currently leading the big boys tournament, the Race to Dubai, tries his hand:
“I’ve still got a little lead, and it’s great for the Race to Dubai, there’s probably five or six guys that have the chance to win it this week, and of course, I’m going to have to go out there and play well if I want to be who wins it – and it’s a good place to be with a slight lead, so the other guys have got to play better than I do.” – Henrik Stenson
Next up, Briton Justin Rose:
“I felt like if I, in a sense, could, to coin a phrase, control my own destiny, meaning that if I win this tournament I win the Race to Dubai, that’s the position I wanted to put myself into coming in here. So that’s where I’m at, so everything’s in my hands and I’m looking forward to a great week – I’m looking forward to giving that a run.” – Justin Rose
But it was Rose’s countryman Lee Westwood who won.
