But the real kicker was Chase Koepka’s hole-in-one. The crowd went absolutely bonkers. So, do yourself a favour and check out the incredible scenes in the clip below.

Watching on TV, it looked like LIV Golf outdid itself with its latest addition to the Grange Golf Club – the Watering Hole. It was the ultimate party hole that even the wild and rowdy WM Phoenix Open’s “The Coliseum” par-3 16th would be jealous of. It came with everything you could dream of – countless bars, a DJ who’s pumping up the volume and an announcer introducing each player to the tee like it’s the main event of a UFC title fight. Yes, it was a little comical at times but it’s hard not to be drawn in by the energy taking place.
The 29-year-old from Smash GC was the only player to ace the par-3 12th on Sunday. And as a reward for his excellent shot, he was showered with beers from the ecstatic fans. “A once-in-a-lifetime experience,” said Koepka. “It’s something to always remember.”
Koepka secured a commendable T24 finish in the tournament, thanks to his remarkable shot on Sunday. Meanwhile, Talor Gooch, the captain of RangeGoats GC, clinched the victory with an impressive score of 19-under. Notably, Australian golf superstar Cameron Smith also had a great performance, finishing at a respectable T4 with a score of 15-under.
