A hole-in-one always is impressive. But Justin Thomas’ ace Saturday was more than impressive — it was mesmerizing.
Thomas is the leader through three rounds at the World Golf Championships-Mexico Championship, thanks in large part to what he did on the 225-yard par-3 13th hole.
The 23-year-old budding golf star hit his iron dead straight, and it one-hopped on the green and into the cup for a pretty special ace.
Just the way he envisioned it. 🎯

You don’t see a hole-in-one every day, let alone one like that.
Thomas shot a 5-under-par 65 and is 12-under through three rounds. Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy, Phil Mickelson, Lee Westwood and Jon Rahm all are within three strokes of him, though, so it should be a fun Sunday at Club de Golf Chapultepec.
