“Yeah riiight...the ball just landed in my pocket. I didn’t see it on the ground and pick it up, or something.”

Stupid smertfoan.
Where.
Where it lies.
I hate when it does that.
It leaves stuff alone, then “fixes” it for you.

McIlroy wasn’t going for retrieving the ball. LOL!

Rory McIlroy’s golf ball finds fan’s pocket at TOUR Championship

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDCkqkItMrQ

Published on Sep 12, 2014
In the second round of the 2014 TOUR Championship by Coca-Cola, Rory McIlroy’s tee shot goes left into the trees and somehow lands in the pocket of a spectator on the par-4 14th hole. McIlroy would go on to two-putt for par.

Betchayur Bippie BO would have fished it out.

Without using his hands. Or feet.

Of course a ‘mere mortal would be unable to get that close to “TMN”.

I’ve heard of pocket pool, but pocket golf?

Is that a golfball in your pocket or are you just happy to see me.

Physically impossible; unless they're shorts like I've never seen.

Second observation... must have been half a dozen official and unofficial videocameras following that ball. No indication at all about how the ball got in the shorts pocket?
Hmmmmmm.

Check the video in post #7, it looks to me like it’s very possible but a very rare occurrence.

Somebody will be getting a large fine. They will need a financial lifeline. They are too old so their favorite TV show shall be cancelled. They will have a squeeze put upon them. Their driveway will take some time to pave after this. They shall be dismissed with a look of disdain. Maybe they will finally jump after getting a good stretch.
