Of all the golfers to bag a hole-in-one, not many were expecting 80-year-old World Golf Hall of Fame member Gary Player to do it.
While Jimmy Walker created history with the lowest ever total (19) at the famed Wednesday pre-tournament competition, at -8-under par, it was Player who stole the headlines.
The nine-tine Major champion and career Grand Slam winner became the oldest ever player to make a 1 at The Masters par-3 Contest.
