Watch: Seamus Power makes back-to-back aces at the Masters Par 3 Contest

What a way to start the week!

Masters week is off to a great start for Irishman Seamus Power. At Wednesday’s Par 3 Contest at Augusta National Golf Club’s Par 3 Course, Power became the third player in history to make back-to-back holes-in-one.

Power aced both the eighth and ninth holes to end his round in style.

The 35-year-old made his Masters debut in 2022 where he eventually tied for 27th. Power is a winner on the PGA Tour this season, claiming the title at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship during the wrap-around campaign.

The previous two players to accomplish the feat were Claude Harmon in 1968 (Nos. 4 and 5) and Toshi Izawa in 2002 (Nos. 5 and 6).
