We all know about Nick Taylor's 72 foot putt to win the Canadian Open this year in June. How about Laura McCracken Ebbrell's 84 foot putt on 9? (We know how long it was because we measured it with a range finder.) It wasn't for the Canadian Open, but still ..... pretty darn good. This is what it looked like:
