It took only a few hours for the first ace of 2019 to be recorded on the PGA Tour.
Patton Kizzire holed his tee shot at the 186-yard, par-3 eighth hole Thursday at Kapalua's Plantation Course. It marked just the second ace in the history of the Sentry Tournament of Champions.
The hole-in-one moved Kizzire to 3 under for the tournament. He won twice last season, including the Sony Open in Hawaii, but hasn't notched a top 10 since.
Maybe this ace will give him some momentum.
