“I'm just happy the camera was on”: Jon Rahm reflects on back to back hole in ones during Masters week

Jon Rahm is in the middle of his preparation period for the Open Championship. However, he took a few minutes of his time to share some memories with The Luckiest Golfers On Earth YouTube channel about the aces he has achieved.

Spaniard and world number two Jon Rahm is the author of eight aces (both in training sessions and official games), one of which ranks among the most impressive in recent times, although "it's not technically a hole-in-one," as he put it.

It was a stroke achieved by Jon Rahm a day before the start of the last Masters tournament. Jon was training his stroke from the rough and decided to try the flush shot over a water hazard, with an amazing result.

The ball made repeated bounces over the water until it reached the opposite bank, continued its journey rolling through the green, made a turn on a small slope, and went straight into the hole.

"Technically not a hole-in-one, right?," Rahm shared with 'The Luckiest Golfer on Earth'. "Because you don't play the whole that way, but I was just skipping shot and I got that ... I'm just happy the camera was on."

But the sensational thing about the event doesn't end with the execution of this training play. Jon Rahm commented that the day before, while practicing with Rickie Fowler, he had hit another ace.

In other words, Rahm got back-to-back hole-in-ones in the two days leading up to the Masters Tournament, which he eventually ended up winning.
