That’s ace: Patrick Reed scores hole in one at LIV Golf’s ‘watering hole’

American golfer Patrick Reed has aced The Grange’s ‘watering hole’ in a stunning start to LIV Golf’s Adelaide tournament.

Reed’s hole-in-one at the par-3 12th hole at the renowned Adelaide course came just 15 minutes into Friday’s opening round.

Reed was immediately showered with drinks thrown by massive crowds lining the party hole.

Reed’s sweetest of shots is just the second ace at the hole in LIV Golf’s four years staging a tournament in Adelaide, following Chase Koepka’s hole-in-one in 2023.

The 34-year-old Reed completed the feat with just the sixth tee shot at the hole on Friday.

Reed is one under after four holes, a shot behind the early leaders, Englishman Tyrell Hatton and China’s Lee Chieh-po.
