During Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship week, the DP World Tour set up the Hero Challenge on the seventh hole of Yas Links. What was the challenge? Make a 139-yard putt.
Over 65 players in the field participated in the Hero Challenge, including Tommy Fleetwood, Min Woo Lee, Robert MacIntyre and Justin Rose. But it was David Micheluzzi who poured it in.
The 139-yard make broke the world record by five yards and Micheluzzi now holds a Guinness World Record title.
The 28-year-old Australian made the putt with his second attempt. He’s playing in this week’s Australian Open and is tied for 33rd through three rounds.
Watch Micheluzzi’s incredible putt — and epic celebration — below.
