Daniel will putt from the first line.

Bob gives an inspiration putt... slightly left, and the rebound stops short.

Daniel putts... further off, heading right and rebounding to the left side. (The camera remains zoomed out.)

Fortunately for him, it's Hole in One... or Two!

Daniel putts again... closer, but still right with a failed rebound. (The hole shot is used, but the player shot isn't.)

Harder than it looks. Daniel will be back for the Showcase Showdown after the break.
