In an exhilarating moment at Auburn University, student Conor Boyle successfully made a remarkable 94-foot putt across the entire length of the basketball court, winning a car in the process.

This remarkable achievement, which took place during the game's second half, has become the highlight of the season, with fans and teammates alike left in awe.

Boyle's precision putt journeyed from one end of the court to the other, perfectly passing through a challenging sign at the opposite basket to secure the win.

Boyle himself took a victory lap around the court, cheered on by ecstatic fans. Auburn guard K.D. Johnson was captured by TV cameras, his expression one of disbelief, with his mouth agape at the sight.

Breaking a Long Hiatus

This event marked the first time this season that a participant has won the promotional contest, securing a vehicle provided by a local Toyota dealership.

Interestingly, this isn't the first time an Auburn student has triumphed in this challenging contest. Craig Noyes, a writer for the student-run site The Auburn Plainsman, also won a car in February 2023, marking the contest's first victor since 2014.
