LIV Golf star Jon Rahm has revealed the number of holes-in-one he’s had since making his first at the 2016 Safeway Open at Silverado.
One would typically assume aces are a regular occurrence among the game’s elite; however, this is not quite the case. Bryson DeChambeau has only made one hole-in-one, for example.
Of course, some claim to have made several; Phil Mickelson said he’s had 47 aces during his distinguished career.
It’s believed the odds of a professional golfer making a hole-in-one are around 2500/1. Rahm, however, is one of the lucky players who has experienced the feeling on multiple occasions.
Jon Rahm reveals hole in ones
Speaking during a video with Bob Does Sports, the two-time major winner revealed that he’s had eight holes in one, including the ace at the Safeway Open.
“I have eight holes in ones. I did not have my first one until I was on the PGA Tour. Seventh or eighth start, Safeway Open at Silverado. I haven’t had one in a while, actually,” Rahm said.
Rahm’s comments came just moments after he nearly slammed dunked his tee shot on a par-three.
Jon Rahm’s infamous ace at The Masters
During a practice round in the lead-up to the 2020 Masters, Rahm stunned fans by producing one of the most unique holes-in-one in golfing history.
Standing on the 16th tee, Rahm skimmed his four-iron across the pond four times before using the iconic slopes and undulation to work his ball down into the hole.
The moment came on Rahm’s 26th birthday, and many claim it was one of the craziest golf shots ever hit. What’s more, Rahm made a hole-in-one on the fourth at Augusta the day before but was unaware until he reached the green.
