Cam Smith has hit plenty of great golf shots during his career, but it will be hard to top the one he hit with a putter from off the green on the penultimate hole of the 2022 Open Championship. With St. Andrews’ famed Road Hole bunker between Smith and the green, the Aussie opted to use his trusted flat stick to go around one of the scariest obstacles in golf. And it led to his lone major championship title.

In case you forgot, here’s a look back at that insane up-and-down. Or, rather, around-and-down:
Which brings us to present day and the now LIV Golf star doing a fun video involving him having to navigate another bunker. And this time Smith used his putter—and every other club in his bag. Let’s just say, the guy is still a short-game wizard. Have a look:
Not too shabby, huh? Sure, Cam missed the green with the driver and the 7-wood (he hit with the 3-wood by banking it off the lip above the bunker), but overall, that’s impressive. Especially with, yes, you guessed it, the putter.
“Oh my god,” a pleased Smith says after somehow flopping one with his flatstick to a few feet. “It was always the putter. Don’t count out putter from behind a putter.”
We certainly won’t, Cam. If you’re the one wielding it, that is.
