Tommy Fleetwood makes HOLE-IN-ONE at WGC Match Play
Tommy Fleetwood follows Sergio Garcia by making an ace on the par-3 4th on Saturday morning
Tommy Fleetwood made a hole-in-one on the par-3 4th during his Round of 16 match at the WGC Match Play.
Fleetwood had already moved ahead in his match against Dylan Frittelli following a birdie at the par-4 1st, and he extended it to 2 up with a par at the 2nd hole.
But then Fleetwood followed in the footsteps of Sergio Garcia just 18 hours previous by sending his tee shot into the cup for a hole-in-one on the par-3 4th to stretch into an early 3 up lead on the South African.
