Today’s final round of the 2020 PGA Championship at Harding Park in San Francisco has been unreal, with seven players at one point being tied for the lead during the final nine holes.

But then one of those players did something incredible and took what seems to be control of the tournament with a drive and a putt that will always be shown in major championship highlights.

Collin Morikawa, who is just 23 years old, stepped up to the drivable par-4 16th and drove the green with a beautiful 293-yard tee shot. That set up a 7-footer for eagle that he calmly sunk for a two-stroke lead.

And then this putt:

He leads the PGA TOUR in eagles made this season.

And just like that one of the game’s rising stars took control of a major championship that has been so tight all day long.

Golf fans were in awe:

Yeah so I guess being near the lead, then chipping in, then making an eagle two holes later is ONE way to give yourself a shot at your first major

A driveable par-4 on the back-nine of a major is my spirit animal.
