The Northern Trust tournament is currently going on, with a number of golfers competing at Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City.

They certainly helped Troy Merritt on the par-5 sixth hole, when he missed a fairly close putt — at least that’s how it seemed at first. Merritt overshot the hole, but the wind somehow blew the ball right back into the hole, much to his surprise.
Not your average birdie. 🐦
