Sergio Garcia produced a shot of a lifetime at the fourth playoff hole, as a hole-in-one meant the Spaniard would book his place in the final 16.
Watch the amazing shot below:
The former Masters champion had won his first two matches of the tournament, with a comfortable 4&3 victory over Lee Westwood and a 3&2 win over Tyrrell Hatton putting him top of the group.
However, Garcia would run into a rejuvenated Matt Wallace in his final game, losing 3&2 in a convincing victory for Wallace.

With Garcia's nearest rival, Westwood, completing a convincing win himself over Hatton, the duo would face off in a playoff for a place in the knockout stages.
Despite the experience, both men produced poor drives at the first, with Garcia going left, and Westwood going right of the fairway.
Both men produced great recovery shots but couldn't convert their birdie putts as they moved onto the second playoff hole.

With Westwood finding the green with his approach, the Spaniard made a terrific up-and-down to match the Englishman's par.
Yet another up-and-down followed for Garcia at the third, as the pair arrived at the par-3 fourth hole.
Playing first, Westwood found the centre of the green, leaving himself a 25-foot putt for birdie and a shot at victory.
Garcia was not to be denied, though, standing on the tee of the 160-yard hole, the Spaniard nailed his nine-iron directly at the flag, pitching a foot behind it and spinning into the hole for an amazing hole-in-one.

Matt joined Golf Monthly in February 2021 covering weekend news, before also transitioning to equipment and testing. After freelancing for Golf Monthly and The PGA for 18 months, he was offered a full-time position at the company in October 2022 and continues to cover news and social media.
Taking up the game when he was just seven years of age, Matt made it into his county squad just a year later and continues to play the game at a high standard, with a handicap of around 2-4. To date, his best round came in 2016, where he shot a six-under-par 66 having been seven-under through nine holes. His favorite player is Rory McIlroy, despite nearly being struck by his second shot at the 17th during the 2015 BMW PGA Championship.
