Oh, Canada, this was a wild shot.
Looking for his first win on the PGA Tour, Tommy Fleetwood hit his ball into a hospitality tent to the right of the 18th green on the second hole of a playoff to decide the 2023 RBC Canadian Open.
The 32-year-old from Southport, England, squared off against Nick Taylor, the Winnipeg native who is aiming to become the first countryman to win the Canadian Open since Pat Fletcher in 1954. Taylor and Fleetwood finished the tournament tied at 17 under, and after each made birdie on the par-5 18th – Fleetwood got up-and-down after a drop in the rough – the playoff went to the 159-yard par-3 ninth hole.
From there each made par, sending the playoff back to the 18th at Oakdale Golf & Country Club in Toronto.
