Chapter 1101 Challenge the Devil's Cave
“Beautiful ~”
“What a beautiful blow~”
When the white golf ball crossed the sky, landed high on the edge of the pond and rushed forward at a high speed, everyone gave warm applause, and even the caddies cheered the blow.
Yang Cheng put one hand on his chest and bent down slightly to greet him. The elegant gentlemanly gift seemed extremely funny at this moment, but it suddenly raised the atmosphere to a higher level.
"Awesome, really amazing. I have heard of your golf skills for a long time. Today I finally saw it with my own eyes. It is well-deserved~" James applauded while applauding.
"Thank you, I don't hit you often, my hands are still a little bit ~" Yang Cheng threw the club to the caddy and invited James to take the same car with him again.
James didn't refuse either.
The car was moving along the lane marked out by the stadium. Yang Cheng held the steering wheel slightly and said casually, "Blackstone Group has developed better and better in recent years. If I remember correctly, as of the end of last year, almost 70% of pension funds in North America have invested in Blackstone Group, which is definitely a milestone for private equity funds."
James is not without pride. Behind this achievement, his hard work and sweat are inseparable, but he concealed it very well, without showing a disgusting expression. "To be precise, it is 72%, and there is still room for improvement."
Yang Cheng laughed, "What? Are you still going to monopolize all pension funds?"
James shrugged, "Although it's very difficult, why not? People must have goals."
At a fork, Yang Cheng put James down. The drop points of the previous few people were different, and Yang Cheng was in another direction.
Through the intercom, the ball was hit one by one according to the previous order of kickoffs. Yang Cheng did not unexpectedly send the ball to the green. Unfortunately, he felt a little cold and did not shoot a birdie. The ball slid directly at the entrance of the hole and stopped at about 11 yards away from the entrance.
This time, I didn't have to take a car and hiked to the green. Everyone gathered again. Peter Flor joked to Yang Cheng, "jason, you just entered the back door."
This is a slander in golf, meaning that the ball slides through the hole and stops further away.
Yang Cheng also replied with a slander, "That's better than Hamilton, he went to the cabbage."
Cabbage means those deep, thick, and desperate long grass areas outside the green. Sure enough, when James cooperated to put on a helpless and disgusting expression.
"E on, the game has just begun, we'll wait and see."
The closest to the hole is Peter Flor, which is only 7 yards away, and it is almost no difficulty on a flat green. For the experienced Peter, he can easily push the ball into the hole.
Then came Yang Cheng, who was also not willing to be outdone, putting a steadily into the hole with a distance of 11 yards, completing the par for the first hole.
The other four were not so lucky and they all scored Boji, which was one shot above par.
He drove to the second hole. This time James got into Flor's car, and Yang Cheng got into a car with Ryze. In the car, Yang Cheng's expression was not as bright as before. "Ryze, when you go back, you should check Schwartzman's recent movements and see if he has contact with the company in Country Z."
As soon as Rez heard this, he knew something had changed. He immediately took out his cell phone and ordered someone to start investigating, and then said,
"Boss, should we increase the acquisition efforts in the secondary market?"
Yang Cheng hesitated for a moment, "We can increase our efforts appropriately."
In the next game, Yang Cheng did not perform at his best due to his mood. Even so, he was in a stalemate with Peter Flor.
However, everyone's luck is not very good today. There were several opportunities to play birdie balls, let alone Hawks.
It took nearly 3 hours and the sun was ready to get off work and reflected the sky red. At this time, everyone came to the No. 16 hole, the most famous Cypress Penalty Stadium.
There has always been a famous saying on the golf course, "If you love someone, accompany him to hit the devil's hole; if you hate someone, accompany him to hit the devil's hole." Almost all golf courses that can make you famous all over the world have such a devil's hole that makes you love and hate, and have become a classic.
In the world of golf, the existence of the Devil's Caves is like a world of infinite magic power. On the one hand, they are regarded as the most eye-catching labels of those famous courts, which is fascinating; on the other hand, they are extremely difficult and challenging, and if you are not careful, you may make the challenger lose all your thoughts and fall from heaven to hell.
Whether it is the "Old Stone Bridge" (Hole 18) in St Andrews, the "Island Green" (Hole 17) in Sawgrass Stadium, the No. 7 hole surrounded by the sea on three sides of the Pebble Beach, etc., they have become the golf resort that fans around the world yearn for because of their inconquering devil holes.
Among them, the devil's hole that can make all golfers around the world feel "despair" is Yang Cheng and the others about to set foot on the No. 16 hole. In the Cypress Penalty Stadium, known as the "most beautiful court in the world", there is such a devil's challenge. It has to be said that this is like the ultimate experience of the two heavens of ice and fire for people.
The total distance of the Cypress Penalty Stadium itself is not long, but the difficulty is very high. Most of the stadiums have two 9 holes in the front and back 9 holes, but the Cypress Penalty Stadium is the second, fifth, sixth and tenth holes, and the sea view starts at the 13th hole, and the magnificent sea view reaches its peak at 15-17 holes, but the ever-changing sea breeze increases the difficulty of hitting.
The difficulty of the No. 16 hole reached its peak and became the devil's hole that all players in the world longed to conquer the most, even without a single one.
The 16th hole has a total length of 223 yards and no fairways. From the tee to the green, you have to cross the turbulent Pacific Ocean. It is the most thrilling par-3 hole in golf. Every kick-off is a challenge to courage. Many world-class masters also miss the front.
Standing in the serving area of the No. 16 hole, Yang Cheng felt his legs trembling. It was not fear, but excited. No one could keep calm in front of the No. 16 hole. On his left was the vast Pacific Ocean. The surging waves hit the cliffs and reefs madly. The powerful sea breeze blew his hair. Yes, the hat no longer works here.
Yang Cheng took a deep breath and still did not swing.
The No. 16 hole is a standard par 3 hole. During the safe period, you should first send the ball to the end of the cliff, and then find a way to send the ball to the green across the bay. But this is also troublesome. The wind direction at this time is southeast wind and the wind is very strong. If you follow the stable play, if you don’t expect it, the ball will be blown into the sea like the previous few people, and you will lose a score in vain.
The sort of people now is like this. Yang Cheng ranked first with a score of 62, followed by Peter Flor's 64. Hamilton James came from behind to get 65. Almost all the remaining people were outside 68, and there was at least 6 shots from Yang Cheng, which gave him the capital to play with his heartbeat.
This is not a formal competition, it is just a private entertainment. Yang Cheng is not afraid of losing, but if you don’t play any exciting things in front of the Devil’s 16th hole, Yang Cheng will regret it for several days.
The distance of 223 yards is not difficult for him to reach. If he grasps the wind direction well, he can still borrow some momentum.
So he made a bold decision, adjusting his standing posture in everyone's surprised eyes, facing the isolated cliff where the green was located, and slightly tilted towards the sea. He stood still, and the No. 1 tree in his hand raised high, drew a full moon in the air, and stopped a little, just like the accumulation of energy before pulling a bow, then fell down fiercely.
The golf ball rose from the ground, and Yang Cheng's force was very strong. The ball flew out very strongly, like a mortar shell, and rushed into the air quickly.
Everyone hurried behind Yang Cheng and looked at it from this perspective. The golf ball seemed to have deviated from the route. If there was no accident, it would eventually fall into the sea. In the waves a few meters high, there would be no splashes.
But Yang Cheng took action only after he had done it. The flying trajectory of the golf ball was flat and fast, and the momentum of moving forward seemed to have nothing to stop it. At this moment, the sweat in front of Yang Cheng's forehead was blown by the wind, and then a smile appeared in front of the sunset.
The wind he was waiting for arrived.
When everyone could see the naked eye, the right southeast wind blew, leading the ball flying in the air away from the route, and the ballistic was right opposite the green position.
Peter Flor couldn't wait to raise his hands high, as if cheering and cheering for the little white ball.
The wind was like Yang Cheng's own control. After slightly assisting the golf ball in trimming, it stopped abruptly. Soon, the white ball fell accurately on the edge of the green. After bounced up, it rolled out at a high speed in the direction of the hole.
Yang Cheng's divine blow exploded in the crowd like a volcano, "Oh my God, wtf, this shot is so amazing~" This is Peter Flor.
"Fuck, I should have recorded it. This shot is rare in a century." This is a casino tycoon.
"Boss, you should challenge Tiger Woods~" You will know who it is when you hear this title.
"Jesus Christ, come and see this great scene." This is Hamilton James.
The only thing the old man who was engaged in non-ferrous metals didn't say a word, it was not that he didn't want to say it, but that he was stunned and stared at the golf ball that had stopped on the green, like a prayer for his wife who had not returned home for many years.
Yang Cheng was embarrassed by being praised, and scratched the back of his head with a smirk, "If I say this is a fool, do you believe it? I'm so lucky. I just wanted to try it out, but I didn't expect it to make me successful."
Peter Flor looked at Yang Cheng with an idiot-looking look, "Damn it, of course you are lucky. I don't believe you can hit the second shot even if you beat me to death."
He paused and smiled bitterly, "But I must admit that this shot is enough for you to blow for the rest of your life. What a pity, no one recorded this shocking shot. It should be sent out for everyone to witness the magic."
