Ben An’s clutch, daring driver off the deck might just be the best golf shot of the year

Faced with 265 metres to the par-5 15th hole at the Jack Nicklaus Golf Club Korea in Incheon, An went with the big dog. Despite water guarding the green. And it led to this spectacular result.

Phil Mickelson finished 19 shots back but still managed to hit the shot of the week at LIV Greenbrier

Phil Mickelson finished 19 shots behind but still managed to hit the SHOT OF THE WEEK at LIV Greenbrier

Lefty beat only four players the entire week, among them Ian Poulter and Charl Schwartzel. And yet, he may have hit the shot of the tournament, a vintage driver off the deck into the par-5 12th green that set up a prime look at an eagle
