WATCH: Tommy Fleetwood Makes Hole-In-One At 17th
Regardless of any variable, the 17th at TPC Sawgrass, host course for The Players Championship, has to be one of the most intimidating shots in all of golf. Pete, and of course Alice Dye's, legendary island green design has resulted in many players plopping balls in the drink which makes the next shot even harder!
However, during a practice round Englishman Tommy Fleetwood made it look very easy indeed.

With the crowd behind him and many phones filming, Fleetwood proceeded to make a hole-in-one at the hole which drew huge celebrations especially from his caddie Ian Finnis, who claimed to predict the shot as you can see below! Playing partners Jon Rahm, Erik Van Rooyen and Tyrrell Hatton were quick to congratulate him too.
