Is this the shortest putt ever missed on tour?

Garcia, unbelievably missed this putt today :o

He also helicoptered his iron after 3 off the tee on the previous hole.....not a happy chappy..........:(
 
If it's more than 2 inches then no. Hale Irwin had a fresh air from that distance in the Open, and missed out on a play off by one.
 
I'm afraid Olazabal gets the award, watched him earlier in the year and he missed a 3 footer for birdie, went to tap it in with the back of his putter and missed that aswell!
 
The best bit about the club toss was he almost threw it after hitting his 1st in the drink but thought better of it at the last minute, spraying his 2nd out to the right proved to much.

The putt was a shocker, he hadn't made anything of note all day but I didn't expect that. He didn't look like a happy boy today - maybe he'll get a new 4 iron for Xmas :D
 
Holy Moly, I must show a mate this, he's got a rep for missing these, I never thought he was good enough to go on tour but reading this he clearly is!!!!!!

I helicoptered a wedge about 175yds once, was Garcia longer with his 4 iron???
 
can't find the putt but here's the club throwing
