Ben Martin won his opening day match by a single stroke over Matt Kuchar at the WGC-Cadillac Match Play on Wednesday. Impressive enough for the third-lowest ranked golfer in the tournament, but the 27-year-old saved his best for late in the day.
Watch Martin's clutch ace at the 243-yard 17th hole, the longest hole-in-one on the PGA Tour this season.
The second WGC event of the year is being played at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco.
