Byrd Wins PGA Event Playoff with an Ace

Truely amazing!

On Sunday, American golfer Jonathon Byrd became the first golfer to win a PGA Tour title with a hole-in-one.

Byrd aced the par-three 17th with the opening shot of the fourth hole of a three-man playoff to triumph at the Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.

It was only his second hole-in-one during a tournament, but he managed the feat at the par-four 15th hole on the same TPC Summerlin course during a practice round earlier in his career.

Byrd's opponents Martin Laird and Cameron Percy shook his hand after he nailed his six-iron tee shot -- then both found water with their attempts to match his feat into the water to give him the $756,000 winner's prize.  A lucky, but a great shot.
