I watched it on tv, it was very ummmm... unexpected.

Why? From the article I read (don't know if the one I read was the same one linked), it said that he missed the 20, 30 and 40 wide, not short.

If he's banging them with long enough distance, you had to believe he at least had a decent shot at making that 50 yarder?

He had the distance but all of his attempts prior to the 50 weren't good, so you'd assume that the hardest of the bunch would be no different than the first few.
