Two days before the start of the traditional Masters in Augusta, Spanish golf star Jon Rahm achieved a viral success on the web with a real artistic blow. Right on his 26th birthday, he hit a hole in an unusual one: In a practice round in Augusta, the second-in-the-world ranking list let the ball dance flat over the Augusta National Golf Club lake on the 16th hole on purpose. . The golf ball hit the water three times, then jumped onto the green and then rolled into the hole as if by magic.
“Second hole in one in two days, happy birthday to me!” The Spanish commented in the spectacular clip on his Twitter account. The day before he had scored an ace, but in the conventional way. The tournament’s official channel also shared the scene, which was viewed more than eleven million times in just a few hours. Before the actual Masters tournament, it is part of the ritual for the players to let the ball bounce over the lake during training.
Despite a good omen in training: in the tournament itself, which starts on Thursday and lasts until Sunday, Rahm, like the rest of the players, will once again prefer a traditional golf shot to tackle the 16th hole. Spanish is one of the favorites in the American state. Tiger Woods won the Masters a year ago.
