AUGUSTA, GA — It’s tough to beat a hole-in-one at the Masters Par 3 Contest, but before we get to those—there were four of them—we have to talk about young Frankie Fleetwood.
The 8-year-old was the talk of the town all week as fans everywhere were waiting to see if he was going to carry the water and hit the ninth green. Frankie even got fitted in the TaylorMade truck, just like dad.

When the time came, Frankie pushed his tee shot a little right and ended up in the water. The good news, though, was that it looked like he had enough distance to make it. He got a second crack at it, but ended up in the water again. (It wasn’t all bad news for the Fleetwoods, but we’ll get to that in a second.)
Next year will be the year, Frankie!
Now, we can get to the holes-in-one.
It started with Justin Thomas, who aced the second hole just minutes after coverage started.

Then it was Captain Keegan’s turn, who became the first player ever to make a hole-in-one in back-to-back Par 3 Contests.
After Bradley was Wyndham Clark.
Finally, Frankie’s dad made one.
The Par 3 is always one of the best afternoons in golf. But now? Now it’s time for the guys to lock in. Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, and Tom Watson will get this party started just before 7:30 a.m. ET Thursday morning.
