The 2023 RBC Canadian Open concluded on Sunday but not without some on- and off-course action. The greens witnessed some iconic drives as Nick Taylor was crowned the winner. Not only this, he became the first Canadian man to grab that title on his home soil since Pat Fletcher in 1954.

Taylor’s victory came in style when he shot the golf ball with an amazing 72-foot eagle putt to deliver a defeat to Tommy Fleetwood. Naturally, such a surreal victory deserves an even more striking celebration. Imitating these exact thoughts, another PGA Tour Pro took on the field to just drop-ship the same. Alas! He was met with a tackling mistake and a bundle of laughs. One of the prime interpreters for this situation was none other than his wife!
