There are millions of casual golfers around the world who dream some day of recording an ace by making a hole-in-one. Meanwhile, there are thousands of professional golfers on this planet who dream one day of stepping onto Augusta National Golf Club and playing at the Masters.

Shane Lowry was able to do both before this year—even recording an ace at the 2016 Masters Tournament. But that wasn’t enough for the Irishman, who made golf history during Round 3 of the 2026 Masters on Saturday. Lowry carded his second hole-in-one at the event, becoming the first person ever to have multiple holes-in-one at the Masters Tournament.
