We're down to the final holes here at Wentworth, but the long drive champion has already been crowned. Take a bow, Wilco Nienaber, who claimed this week's title with a 338 yard drive at the par five 12th.
In what could be a decisive moment in this week's BMW Indoor Invitational, co-leader Jordan Smith has found the water on the final hole.

It's getting tight at the top as the leaders enter their final few holes, but it's not been the only thing for players to compete for today.
The field took on a Closest to the Pin challenge at the second, and it was local knowledge that turned out to be the winner as Wentworth Club member took home the spoils with a shot to seven feet.
Wil Besseling, the champion at Golfclub München Eichenried two weeks ago, just recorded his fourth birdie of the day. He's one shot behind Wiesberger, Jordan Smith, Hurly Long and Joachim B Hansen.
🏆, 2nd, 3rd

"That looked good"
"Where's that gone"
A lesson here in avoiding embarrassment for all commentators and spectators: Don't call the outcome of the shot too early.

Things are heating up at Wentworth! Wilco Nienaber nearly claimed an albatross at the 12th hole after a monster drive, while Damien Perrier drove the green to set up an eagle of his own at the fourth.
This close to an albatross!

There's a few notable differences between a regular Tour event and the BMW Indoor Invitational powered by Trackman, and Thomas Pieters is taking advantage of the more relaxed vibe.

Wilco Nienaber has taken an early lead with three birdies in his first four holes, but it's Connor Syme, Lee Tae Hee and Nicolai von Dellingshause providing the more relatable golf shots.
Relatable golf shots from the pros.
