Truthers may point out that this shot from golfer Jon Rahm didn't count since it came in a Masters practice round today, but they should consider that he skipped that fucker across a pond like a rock across a lake on a cool summer morning, and IT ROLLED ALL THE WAY INTO THE HOLE.

Skip shots on the 16th hole at Augusta National are a tradition in practice rounds, and though Rahm's hole-in-one is incredible, it is not the first of its kind. Both Vijay Singh and Martin Kaymer have aced from the same position, also in practice rounds. The final frontier for this particular shot is for a golfer to do it in actual tournament play, ideally this weekend.
