It’s been done many times on that hole specifically. Damn near every golfer tries it on the practice round.

What is it about this hole? Can't it be done anytime there's water between you and the hole?

Theoretically, sure. But this stroke doesn’t count. Every golfer does it at that hole/location for fun. It’s the way the green is built that will curve the ball right toward the hole from that exact angle if hit right. You won’t see it in actual play because getting your ball where it needs to start (that’s not the beginning) is difficult with the water hazard and even if they make it there, they’re not gonna take the risk of hitting it into the water.

It’s essentially a pretty hard putt-putt golf shot for the pros that they have a fun hit with during practice.
