Ryan Moore made a slam dunk ace at the island 17th on Thursday, becoming the ninth player to make a hole-in-one on the island green at the Players. “My caddie ran over, he kind of reacted to it like he thought it went in right away and I wasn’t necessarily sure,” Moore said. “I was waiting to try and find the ball on the green and I didn’t see it, after I kind of heard it hit the pin. So he ran over and like grabbed me and, I don’t know, I think he gave me a hug or something. And then the crowd went crazy.”With the wind helping on the 120-yard hole, Moore hit his 54-degree wedge, a club that normally goes 110 yards.
