Putting is overrated.
It’s Moving Day at the World Golf Championships-Mexico Championship, and what better way is there to shoot up the leaderboard than with a hole-in-one?
During Saturday’s third round at Mexico City’s Club de Golf Chapultepec, both Chez Reavie and Jon Rahm, former Arizona State Sun Devils, made holes-in-one within minutes of each other.
Reavie was first, acing the 167-yard par 3 third hole. It was Reavie’s fifth hole-in-one made on the PGA Tour and his second in the last two months. The two-time winner on Tour aced the eighth hole during the final round of the QBE Shootout in December.
His 5th ace on TOUR.

Rahm was next, one-hopping his ball into the bottom of the cup off the tee at the 158-yard par 3 17th. But why talk about it when we can just show you?
What a shot. 👏
What a reaction. 🙌@JonRahmPGA one-hops it for an ace at @WGCMexico.#QuickHits pic.twitter.com/6CO6dy3gjz— PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) February 22, 2020
Rahm walked off the course T-5 at 11 under with the leaders still playing. Reavie is 2 under, T-29.
