Paul Casey clears the pond without reaching for a wedge

Skratch's broadcast excerpt catches the golfer checking the wind before sending a ball onto the green by hand.

Who needs a wedge when you've got an arm like this? 🚀

Could he actually throw it all the way to the green? Paul Casey puts the question to his companions, then adds: "I feel a bet coming on."

The pond between him and the target makes this more than a casual toss. In the TELUS World Skins footage shared by Skratch, Casey checks the wind with another player and offers a golfer's reassurance: "I throw fades, as well."

Then comes the windup. The ball sails across the water, lands on the green and rolls toward the pin. Casey pumps his fist and collects high-fives, while a commentator suggests Major League Baseball teams might want to take notice.

The Short drew about 25,000 views in its first ten hours, already well beyond Skratch's usual first-day audience for the format. It's a broadcast excerpt, not a newly filmed challenge, and its appeal needs little golf expertise: there's water to clear and no club doing the work.

In the comments, viewers pick up Casey's fade joke and contemplate what attempting that throw would do to their own arms.
