Golf is a sport built around four majors, and while he might not have won them all, Louis Oosthuizen has just won our hearts with some superb lip-syncing.
Only five golfers have ever achieved the career Grand Slam. Oosthuizen is not one of them, although his T2 finish at the 2017 US PGA Championship means he has joined an exclusive club of his own.
And he's done it: Louis Oosthuizen has completed the career near-slam. He's now finished runner-up at all four major championships.

Since winning the 2010 Open the 34-year-old has finished second in all four major golf tournaments – the Masters, the US Open, the Open and now the US PGA Championship.
Oosthuizen finished two shots off the lead over the weekend at the final golf major of the year, and this is how that made him feel.

That’s Oosthuizen lip-syncing, fantastically it must be said, to Andra Day’s song, Rise Up.
And while he might have missed out on a second major trophy, Oosthuizen won the respect of a lot of people for his hilarious video.
And I thought his swing was sweet . . .
