History was made on the hallowed grounds of Augusta National this Wednesday, and it came with a perfect swing from Keegan Bradley. In the storied, lighthearted tradition of the Masters Par 3 Contest, a new record was set: Bradley became the first player ever to card a hole-in-one in consecutive years.

The magic happened on the picturesque eighth hole of the par-3 course. From 110 yards out, Bradley's tee shot took flight, landed softly beyond the pin, and with a couple of friendly bounces and a perfect spin, trickled back into the cup. The result was an instant eruption of celebration, a familiar feeling for the Bradley camp.

This incredible feat marks a stunning piece of Par 3 lore. While a handful of golfers have managed two aces in a single year, no one had ever strung them across back-to-back tournaments until now. It's a serious display of precision that adds another layer to Bradley's week at Augusta.

For Bradley, it's a case of delightful déjà vu. Just last year, in 2025, he sent the gallery into a similar frenzy with an ace on the sixth hole. While the signature mustache may be gone, the clutch shot-making clearly remains.

This spectacular start is the ultimate confidence booster as Bradley turns his focus to the main event. He begins his quest for a coveted green jacket on Thursday, riding a wave of momentum and a unique piece of Masters history. It’s a reminder that in golf, sometimes the most memorable moments happen before the tournament even officially begins.
