Keegan Bradley Steals The PLAYERS Championship Show With Spectacular Ace
@Source: newsweek.com
Keegan Bradley finished his performance at The PLAYERS Championship 2025 with four rounds in the 70s and a final score of 4-under 284. However, his best moment of the week came with a spectacular hole-in-one during the final round.The shot came on the par-3, 153-yard 13th hole. Bradley teed off with a 7-iron and hit it with such precision that the ball landed less than two feet from the pin and rolled directly into the hole."It was kind of nasty when I hit that shot," Bradley recalled after his performance, according to The Palm Beach Post. "That pin kind of funnels in if you hit a good shot. If you leave to the right you're in deep trouble so you have to be pretty aggressive. I hit it and it just rolled right in."Bradley's ace capped an excellent run of form that he was enjoying despite the poor weather conditions at TPC Sawgrass. Up to that point, the American Ryder Cup captain had a bogey-free card with two birdies, with his eagle on the 13th bringing his score to 4-under for the round.The Woodstock, Vermont, native continued his hot streak with pars on the next three holes. However, his fortunes changed dramatically on the final two holes, potentially costing him a top 20 finish.On the famous par-3 17th hole, his tee shot reached the island green, but his ball remained in the rough. He managed to reach the green with his second shot, but the ball was more than 20 feet away and Bradley two-putted for bogey.On the par-4 18th something similar happened to him. He sent his tee shot to the right native area and had to look for the fairway with a shot of only 58 yards. From there he looked for the green, but his ball ended up in the left bunker. His only option to save par was to try to chip it in and so he tried, but his ball ended 7 feet from the hole and Bradley closed his performance with a bogey on the 72nd hole.The 7-time PGA Tour winner was able to finish his round just before it was suspended due to lightning storms over TPC Sawgrass. At the time of the suspension, Bradley was tied for 21st with more than 10 players still on the course.His ace on the 13th hole is Keegan Bradley's second of the season. His previous one came on the 3rd hole at Torrey Pines during the Genesis Invitational.More Golf: The PLAYERS: Jordan Spieth Frustration Boils Chucks Club After Water Ball
