It was a classic case of Lukas overlooking the correct spot to shoot for the moon.
No one shoots for the moon (and sometimes hits) like Lukas.

Yeah - only because he's had a whole lot to shoot at it with for a long, long, long time.

Chip Wooley can miss with his next 25 and ruin them all badly in the process and he'd still be way ahead of Lukas percentage wise.
