Professional golfer Wesley Bryan has recently shared a video on his social media accounts, showcasing what could potentially be the longest putt ever made. The footage, lasting approximately 20 seconds, captures Bryan’s impressive shot from 144 yards out, or 432 feet. The putt took a remarkable 14 seconds to travel from the fairway to the hole.
While the video has garnered attention and excitement, questions have arisen regarding the authenticity of the putt and whether it qualifies as a record-breaking achievement. Bryan’s social media accounts have responded to inquiries, stating that the putt was not the result of artificial intelligence and that it required multiple attempts before successfully sinking the ball.
The current Guinness World Record for the longest putt stands at 401 feet, 2 inches, achieved by Jay Stocki in 2003. However, Bryan’s putt, if verified, would surpass this record. Guinness also acknowledges a 111-foot, 5-inch putt by Craig Barlow in 2008 as the longest putt made in a PGA Tour event, and a 110-footer by Nick Price at the 1992 PGA Championship as the longest putt in a major tournament.
While the Bryan brothers’ social media accounts have not contacted Guinness to verify the record, the authenticity of the putt remains a subject of speculation. In response to a comment on their Instagram account suggesting the use of artificial intelligence, the account replied with a sarcastic remark.
Wesley and George Bryan, known for their contributions to YouTube golf, have been showcasing their golf skills and engaging in various matches for years. Their video of Wesley Bryan’s impressive putt has sparked interest among golf enthusiasts and fans alike.
As of now, the exact location where the putt was made remains undisclosed. The video has generated excitement within the golf community, prompting discussions about the potential record-breaking nature of Bryan’s remarkable shot. Whether or not the putt will be officially recognized as a record remains to be seen.
