I watched Player in the practice bunker at Lytham about 30 years ago. He threw 6 balls, with force, into the bunker in different places. When the balls came out, they ran gently at the hole like putts. When he had hit them all, the worst one was 18 inches away, 2 were on the edge of the hole, and 3 were in. I've been to many opens, but watching that really stunned me.

As much as I loved Arnie and Jack in my opinion the greatest was Gary. Coming from South Africa with no money and a family back in South Africa he had the toughest road to achieve success. The best bunker player for sure. Thank you.

Wow. Makes it look so simple. I always feared bunkers, entering the sand with despondency. Having watched that over and over I now have confidence to get out 9/10 times. Thanks Mr Player.

I remember practice round muirfield 92 I was watching all the golfers then I saw Gary Player I spoke to my friend loud enough for the black knight to hear I wonder if he hit a bunker shot. Gary obliged even a 20 year old golf fan we all knew he’s the greatest bunker player of all time. Thanks for posting this video

Has anyone ever seen Gary Player leave a ball in a bunker? I have never seen it happen during lessons, practice, or tournament play, but I'm sure it has happened. Maybe the last time was when he was 10-years-old.

I use Mr Player's "Strike the Match" philosophy also with some wedge shots around the green. Instead of trying to hit the ball with the club, I have the ball on the wedge in the shortest possible time. It's greatly improved the % of my up and downs.

I had a fit in bunkers yesterday, that were at least 4" deep, I didnt choke up on the club and needless to say after multiple attempts got mad and just swung like a mad man with not setting a stance. Is it as simple as choking up on the club?
