PGA Championship: Golf gods are in Jhonattan Vegas' favor

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Jhonattan Vegas had a four-shot lead in the PGA Championship when he stepped to the tee at the par-3 17th, so he didn't need any help. But then, this happened:

If you couldn't tell, his tee shot caromed of the rake near the front sand trap, shooting it almost directly toward the pin. His ball settled about 33 feet from the hole, giving him a look at birdie.

Vegas didn't make the birdie putt, but he did get a tap-in for par .
