Quoting Rithwik ,
“The Connect – Shot Heard Round the World and the aircraft that connects is Concord because the phrase was orginated from the opening stanza of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Concord Hymn .
This phrase refers to Bobby Thomson’s ( A ) walk-off home run ,is used most often to describe Gene Sarazen’s( B ) albatross on the fifteenth hole at the 1935 Masters Tournament , used to describe the goal scored by Paul Caligiuri ( C ) for the United States against Trinidad and Tobago in Port of Spain in 1989 thereby putting them through into the finals and the phrase became synonymous with the shot that killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand ( D ) and plunged Europe into World War I.”

Nice question
Concord
Connect is “Concord” hymn
A line from it’s opening stanza “shot heard round the world” is sometimes used to describe major events in world history. Like the shooting of Franz Ferdinand
This term finds it’s presence in sports journalism more than any other place and is time and again used to write about major sporting achievements, like (A)Bobby thomson’s home run, Gene Sarazen’s albatross at the 1935 masters etc
The Concorde
1. Bobby Thomson
2. Paul Caliguiri
3. Gene Sarazen
4. Archduke Franz Ferdinand
All have been referenced with “the shot heard ’round the world”, which is originally from Emerson’s poem – Concord Hymn” – hence the connect.
Great question !!
