The First Ace of the Masters Par 3 Contest Goes to Justin Thomas

The first hole-in-one at the Masters Par 3 Contest came courtesy of Justin Thomas!

The Masters Par 3 Contest kicked off at noon on Wednesday, and it only took a few minutes to get our first hole-in-one.

Take a bow, Justin Thomas!

On the second hole, with wedge in hand, JT’s tee shot took one bounce, spun back, and rolled right into the cup. The only thing better than the shot may have been his celebration.

If you remember, JT was part of one of the best moments in the history of the Par 3. In 2016, JT and Rickie Fowler made back-to-back aces on the fourth hole.

What a start to Masters week for JT!
