The tee shot at the par-5 12th has been a launching pad all week at Austin Country Club. So when two of the biggest hitters on tour got there Sunday in the WGC-Match Play finals, big numbers were expected.
Jon Rahm went first and drove it 438 yards down the left fairway, then Dustin Johnson followed it up by flying it 424 yards down the right fairway.
Add it all up and the two shots traveled a total distance of 862 yards.
