During the final round of the European Tour's KLM Open, Andy Sullivan holed a nine-iron from 163 yards on the par-3 15th hole. The ace not only helped him to a third-place finish in the event won by Paul Casey, it earned him a brief, but unique journey.

XCOR Space Expeditions sponsored the prize valued at $100,000. The company will provide "a half-hour suborbital flight to 100km (330,000 feet) and then return to a landing at the take-off runway," should Sullivan choose to go.

That's an awesome prize! Cars are great and all, but a trip to outer space is a once in a lifetime experience.
