Shaquille O’Neal will be remembered as one of the greatest NBA centers ever. He will not be remembered as one of the greatest golfers ever.
The colorful big man made sure of the latter this week at the Greenbrier Pro-Am, where he stepped into the tee box on the very first hole. Here’s how things went.

So, yeah. Not good.
As bad as that first tee shot looked, Shaq still claims he’s better than TNT colleague Charles Barkley, and if you’ve ever seen Barkley swing a golf club, you know he might be right.

We propose a golf-off between Barkley and Shaq, and we propose it be televised. Both players might somehow lose, but at least everyone else will win.
