Shane Lowry scored an ace on sixth hole in the third round of the 2026 Masters on April 11.
Lowry, among a group trying to chase defending champion Rory McIlroy atop the leaderboard, teed off 190 yards from the sixth hole. His 7-iron shot took two hopes on the green before rolling into the hole and sending the patrons into a frenzy.
It was the seventh hole-in-one on the sixth hole at the Masters in tournament history, according to CBS. It was also the second ace in Lowry's career at the tournament: he completed the feat in the final round in 2016 on the famed 16th hole.
It also brought Lowry to within four shots of McIlroy and in a three-way tie for second place at 8 under for the tournament.
