In the fourth round, Gene Sarazen holed a double eagle (235yards, 4wood) to tie Craig Wood and force a 36-hole playoff. This second shot at Firethorn, the par-5 15thhole, then , is referred to in golf as the "shot heard 'round the world."
Sarazen won the Monday playoff by five strokes, even-par144 to 149(+5), and parred the 15thhole in both rounds. Tournament co-founder and host Bobby Jones finished at 297, fifteen strokes back in a tie for 25thplace. The purse was $5,000 and the winner's share was $1,500.
