Denny McCarthy recorded the first hole-in-one of the 2021 Players Championship on Friday, acing the par-3 third hole.
McCarthy, who began on the back nine at TPC Sawgrass, holed out from 164 yards for his first career PGA Tour hole-in-one.
The 1 moved McCarthy to 6 under par in the championship, where he finished following a 69.
Long after McCarthy was done, Brendon Todd added a second ace of the day. He holed out with a 5-wood from 213 yards on the par-3 eighth to reach even par and give him a shot at making the cut.
