Maverick McNealy may have hit a stunning 6-iron to five feet on 18 to capture his maiden PGA Tour title at the RSM Classic on Sunday night, but he rather hilariously hasn't got a clue which model of TaylorMade irons are in his bag at the moment.
McNealy, 29, was locked in a four-way tie for the lead as he stood over his approach shot into the par-4 18th at Sea Island GC in Georgia.
He rather fortuitously just watched amateur Luke Clanton and Nico Echavarria both bogey the hole in front of him to give him a shot at a first PGA Tour title in the season-ending event.

McNealy took full advantage by firing a dart at the flag from 186 yards to five feet.
After watching his playing partner Daniel Berger come up shy with his 20-foot birdie attempt, McNealy sealed the deal by draining his birdie putt into the heart to finish one shot clear on 16-under par.
The first win came in his 134th start as a pro, in a week where he also made his 100th cut on the PGA Tour.
McNealy was asked by a pool of reporters after the tournament to discuss the greatest shot of his PGA Tour career to date.
"Yeah, so a 6-iron is like a 200 club, so I didn't need to kill it, but I just needed good solid one," said McNealy.
"Scout [caddie and brother] told me compress it, just smash down, take a divot. Scout's coaching has been pretty simple lately, he says swing left and take a divot. So I just swung left, took a divot, all came out right online dead centre of the clubface and it couldn't have been a better time for it."
The American was then asked to talk about his decision to recently add new TaylorMade irons to his bag during the Fall.
McNealy is currently a free agent in the equipment world, which has given him the luxury to choose whichever clubs he likes.
The funny thing is though, McNealy hasn't got a clue which model of TaylorMade irons are in his bag at the moment.
All he knows is that they are deadly accurate.
"Yeah I recently switched to TaylorMade P something, PMC?" said a puzzled McNealy.
"I actually don't know what they are, but they go straight so I like them!"
After a closer inspection of his golf bag, we can confirm to McNealy that his irons are indeed TaylorMade P7CBs.
And Mav if you're reading this, they are from 4 to 9-iron in True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts.

McNealy's new TaylorMade P7CB irons were ordered for him by his former long-time caddie Travis McAlister.
He decided to call time on his partnership with McAlister earlier this season and replaced him with his brother Scout.
"Trav suggested I use these irons," said McNealy.
"He ordered them for me from TaylorMade without even telling me and I just got home and saw them at the door, so I owe him an assist on that."
On being a free agent, McNealy concluded:
"I think the best part about that is there is zero pressure to change or switch any equipment."
