Jean van de Velde returns to Carnoustie with only a putter (1999)

"He could have played the entire hole with his putter and gotten under seven," the broadcast said. After his famous meltdown at Carnoustie, here's the short film about the time Jean van de Velde returned to the scene to see if that was true.

How can you not love this guy? It’s the most heartbreaking event of his professional career, and he can still have fun with it. I wish there were more Van De Velde’s in sports...

[@scottsears5545]

Agreed

[@mrxboyd9]

He’s such a classy guy. What’s funny is if he had won no one would remember him.

[@kidoseven]

The music and narrative here is incredible. What a guy Jean is though, your heart has to go out to him.

Look at his wee kids at the end, the golf means nothing. Family is everything
