AUGUSTA, Ga. — Ryan Moore took dead aim at the flag on No. 16 holding a Chattanooga-made 7-iron from Scratch Golf.
Following a fluid swing, Moore watched his ball land on the green, trickle left toward the cup and disappear for an ace.
“It was disbelief at first,” said Moore, who also made a fashion statement this week at the Masters. “You could kind of see it, and you hope your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you.
“By the reaction — and it was the loudest roar I’ve ever heard, certainly for me — I knew.”
Moore’s second career competitive hole-in-one propelled him to a 4-under 68 on Sunday and 2-under for the tournament. He finished tied for 14th and earned a spot in next year’s Masters.
