directly into the hole, eliciting a roar from the gallery.
Greyserman’s Ace and McIlroy’s Bunker Shot
Just eight minutes later, Max Greyserman followed suit, achieving a hole-in-one on the par-3 14th hole, a 180-yard shot. His ace came so close to missing, it looked like it was going to be an inch from going in, then somehow dropped.
Greyserman’s achievement earned him a latest Genesis SUV.
The incredible run continued moments later as Rory McIlroy holed out from a greenside bunker on the par-4 12th for a birdie, marking his second consecutive birdie of the day.
Bridgeman Leads, Despite the Drama
