Nick Taylor has won the Canadian Open in the most dramatic style as he holed a 72-foot putt to see off Tommy Fleetwood on the fourth extra hole.
The Canadian player had initially holed a 11-foot putt on the last hole in regulation play to give himself the clubhouse lead, only for Fleetwood to threaten to snatch the title with birdies on 16 and 17.
A third in succession at the last would have given the Englishman his first-ever PGA Tour title, yet he was fortunate to make par after inexplicitly finding the rough with two iron shots, one off the tee.
The pair had played out three extra holes - Fleetwood holing a 20-footer to survive on the first before squandering chances to win on the second and third - but he was powerless to prevent Taylor from producing one of the great moments on the PGA Tour in recent memory.
Fleetwood had 12 foot for birdie as Taylor faced down a 72-footer up the slope and with a vicious right to left curve, yet his effort, further aided by the slower green due to rain, found the centre of the hole.
The putt ended a 69-year wait for another Canadian winner in their national open, and the glory was shared with many of his fellow Canadian players who had stayed in attendance to support their friend.
Adam Hadwin was one of those players, holding a bottle of champagne in the event that Taylor pulled off the greatest moment of his career and one of the most memorable moments in the tournament's prestigious history.
Upon the putt being holed, Hadwin ran on to celebrate, ready to spray champagne over the victor, only to be tackled by security who were not aware that he had competed in the event.
Earlier in the day, Hadwin had walked off the 18th hole having carded a round of 68 to ultimately finish in a tie for 12th position, making him the second-highest Canadian finisher in the tournament.
Tyrrell Hatton, Aaron Rai and third-round leader CT Pan finished in a share of third, while Rory McIlroy had to make do with a tie for ninth spot.
