Golf is easy. Or it at least looks easy when it's played like this.

Danny Willett came beat Patrick Reed 2 and 1 to make it two wins from two in the WGC Cadillac Championship, and his form over the last two days could be well summed up by this shot. Teeing off at the "short" (if you say so) 291 yard Par 4 12th hole, Willett absolutely nailed his drive to the edge of the green, and watched it slowly roll towards the hole for an incredible albatross hole-in-one. However, the ball trickled just wide of the hole, meaning Willett had to settle for an eagle, but he did go on to win the hole, and eventually the match. Not bad at all.
