Shot of the year? Morikawa's eagle on the 16th sealed his maiden Major title
WATCH: Morikawa's Stunning Eagle En-Route To PGA Championship Win
Collin Morikawa made a sensational eagle at TPC Harding Park's drivable 16th to win the PGA Championship.
In what will surely go down as shot of the year, the American hit a drive to inside 10ft and converted the putt to surge ahead.
The leaderboard was tightly-packed with quality players and it was Morikawa who produced the shots to win during the pressure moments and no shot was more clutch than his tee shot on 16.

He ended the week two clear of Paul Casey and 54-hole leader Dustin Johnson.
