Shane Lowry Makes Ace at Houston Open for Fourth PGA Tour Hole-in-One

The shot extends a rare run of aces that has become a hallmark of his recent seasons.

Overview

  • Lowry, playing Sunday at the Texas Children's Houston Open in Houston, holed his tee shot on the 170-yard, par-3 second at Memorial Park.
  • The ball landed in line with the flag, took a couple of small bounces, hit the stick, curled around the cup and dropped as he raised his hands and high-fived his group.
  • The ace is the fourth of his PGA Tour career, following holes-in-one at Augusta National in 2016, TPC Sawgrass in 2022 and Pebble Beach in 2025.
  • He began the final round tied for 38th and 12 shots behind leader Gary Woodland, so the ace did not put him in contention.
  • ESPN’s X account shared video of the shot, underscoring how rare aces often get outsized attention on live golf coverage and social media.
