It didn't result in a beer shower like Sam Ryder's ace last year, but Rickie Fowler gave himself a moment to remember on Sunday in Scottsdale.

Dressed in his Sunday orange, Fowler hit a hole-in-one on the seventh hole at the Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale on Sunday.

Fowler's shot from 216 yards out took three hops before settling and rolling into the bottom of the cup – it was his third ace as a pro.

There were a lot of shapes on Fowler's scorecard for the front nine – he bogeyed two and birdied three, but his ace brought him to -11 on the tournament – however, he bogeyed eight and nine to go six shots back of the lead.

It was the fifth ace at the seventh hole in tournament history – Scott Piercy drilled one on the hole back in 2020.
