This years overall winning image is titled 'Sky Drive' by Patrick Smith. It features Lee Westwood taking a shot on the driving range at LIV Golf Invitational. The photo is slightly cryptic in that it challenges the viewer to wonder what is really going on.

The image is one of 24 winning stunning images submitted by over 700 photographers across multiple sports categories including athletics, basketball, cycling, formula 1, gymnastics and football.
