At PGA Championship speeds (Stimp 13), gravity dominates friction, causing a golf ball on a 1° slope to deflect 4 inches over 10 feet, which explains why seemingly perfect putts can miss at major championships.

Why The PGA Championship Always Produces Dramatic Putts — The Physics" #golf #shorts #americaAdded:
PGA Championship dramatics aren't random. They're physics. Championship greens run at Stimp 13. At that speed, gravity dominates friction. Even on a 1° slope, a ball moving at 3 mph across that slope deflects 4 in over 10 ft.
That's a missed putt on a line that looks perfect. Major speed doesn't just make putting harder. It changes what's physically possible. Every lip out you've ever seen at a major, that was the green speed making a perfect line wrong.
What's the most dramatic putt you've ever seen at a major? Comment below.
Let's build a list.
