Every golfer has been where Thomas Detry was on Friday afternoon at PGA National during the Cognizant Classic in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
Detry was trying to wrap up a par-4 sixth and had a decent birdie attempt. The shot came up short. When he putted for par, he hit it a little to the left. Frustrations got the better of him as his next attempt hit the side of the cup and bounced out. It took Detry six strokes to finish the hole.

He was four over par before he got the ball in the hole. The quadruple bogey contributed to an 80 on the day. He missed the cut by 13 shots.
The 31-year-old Belgian golfer plays on the PGA Tour and the European Tour. He had picked up a victory on the Challenge Tour and the ISPS Handa Melbourne World Cup of Golf with Thomas Pieters before he moved up the ranks. He narrowly lost the 2021 Scottish Open in a playoff.
