Jake Brend , the news director at SCTV, propagated the scoop on Twitter .

While watching the last round of the 3A, Brend witnessed carnage break out close to 18th green, where companies faced a seemingly above market pin location at the top of more compact mound on a severely sloping green, resulting in what Brend reported as an average credit rating of quadruple bogey round the hole.

Brend wrote on Twitter: “Today at the Girls 3A Condition Golf Tournament at The Lake Valley Golf Course in ?delbyrdig, the average score on gap 18 was a quadruple bogey. ” He continued, “No, the golfers weren’t disastrous, but this had to have already been the most unfair pin placement I’ve ever seen. This excellent slope gave the professional athletes no chance. ”

Brend caught broad video footage of the disastrous serps, which he shared the particular video with his tweet. To them, you can watch putt after putt just miss the hole, only to trundle all the way off green, with some players throwing their hands up in rage.

In a prior tweet, Brend shared an image that shows the full gourmet loose leaf surface at 18, so you might clearly spot the devilish pin placement.
