Keegan Bradley records hole-in-one at Players Championship on par-3, 153-yard 13th hole

PONTE VEDRA BEACH — Keegan Bradley made a hole-in-one twice in his first 18 years on the PGA Tour.

Now, he has two in the last month.

Bradley, the U.S. Ryder Cup captain from Jupiter, aced the par-3 13th hole at The Players Championship Sunday, his shot came from 153-yards in a light rain and while the area was under a tornado watch. The ball bounced twice on the soft green before rolling into the cup. Bradley raised his arms before giving a high five to his caddie, and the other players in his group that included Jasper Svensson and Aaron Rai.

Bradley's last ace was one month ago, during the final round of the Genesis Invitational at Torrey Pines. That hole-in-one came on the 155-yard third hole.

With heavy rain on the way, Bradley's group was among the first off as the Players started the day on the first and 10th tees. He was 2-under, 10 shots behind leader J.J. Spaun after 54 holes. The ace put him at 6-under, five shots behind the leaders.

The hole in one is the 40th in Players history, including the 13th on the 13th hole, the last being Sungjae Im in 2019. The iconic No. 17 had 14 aces.

The PGA Tour has seen had eight holes-in-one in 2025, the last two by Bradley.
