- Arguably the most iconic shot in golf history is Gene Sarazen’s 4-wood shot on the par-5 15th hole. It found the cup for a double-eagle 2, erasing Craig Wood’s three-shot lead and propelling Sarazen to the title. The club that hit that historic blow is a Jim Gallagher persimmon head with “Gene Sarazen” inscribed on the crown.
