HOUSTON, Texas— Now that the Chevron Championship has gotten underway, cue up the highlight reel!

So far, we've seen some pretty heroic shots from player like Hannah Green who put one in close from under a tree, and past champion Patty Tavatanakit is making Memorial Park look all too easy Thursday afternoon.

But there is one video making its rounds on Golf Twitter of Ina Yoon hitting her tee shot on the 186-yard par 3, 7th hole that didn't look real...and not in the way you're thinking.

Yoon had played her first 15 holes at 4-under par and was once tied for second, but then this mishap took place. The shot absolutely stunned announcer Tom Abbott, who said he had never seen anything quite like it before on the LPGA! And to be fair...he's not wrong the ball flight was pretty wild.

Fortunately for Yoon, she took her medicine and walked away with a double bogey. She's currently T-4 for the tournament after carding a 69.
