Ryan Fox Makes Historic Hole-in-One at The Players Championship

New Zealand's Ryan Fox achieves a rare feat with a hole-in-one on the iconic 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass, propelling him to three-under par.

Ryan Fox becomes the 14th golfer to record a hole-in-one on the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass during The Players Championship.
The ace on the island green was part of a remarkable sequence where Fox scored back-to-back eagles on the 16th and 17th holes, a first in the tournament's 50-year history.
Despite a somewhat muted start, Fox's performance, including the historic hole-in-one, places him within striking distance of the lead.
The hole-in-one marks Fox's first on the PGA Tour and the first of this year's Players Championship.
The achievement contributes to a recent increase in hole-in-ones at the 17th, with eight aces recorded in the last nine editions of the tournament.
