Rafa Cabrera Bello's Incredible Finish at The Players!

By: Golfshake Editor | Mon 15 May 2017


Rafa Cabrera Bello has become one of the most consistent players in the game, making his Ryder Cup debut last September. However, the 32-year-old hasn't been able to translate that impressive form into victories, but the two-time champion on the European Tour certainly won many fans with his breathtaking finish at TPC Sawgrass on Sunday.

Coming to the iconic final three holes, Cabrera Bello had experienced a disappointing final round and had fallen outside the top ten, but he transformed that situation in extraordinary fashion. After a perfect drive on the par five 16th, the Spaniard holed his second shot from 181 yards to record the first albatross in the history of that hole!

He certainly enjoyed the moment, celebrating with the assembled fans on the Stadium Course. Moving onto the iconic 17th, he took an aggressive line with the tee shot and made a rare birdie to the delight of the thousands watching on. His run looked to have come to an end on the 18th, after hooking his drive into the water. However, there was more magic to come, as he holed a long putt from off to the green to save the most unlikely of pars!
