LIST: Every recorded par-4 hole-in-one on a major golf tour

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


In the history of professional golf, there have been eight par-4 holes-in-one during competition on major golf tours.

The first came on the PGA Tour in 2001, when Andrew Magee made the only par-4 ace to date in PGA Tour history on the 17th hole at TPC Scottsdale in the first round of the Phoenix Open.

Since then, seven more par-4 aces have been made, with four on the Web.com Tour, two on the LPGA Tour, one on the European Tour. Others have been recorded in pro-ams on major tours (Richard Green at 2015 Oates Vic Open, Jason Kokrak at 2013 RSM Classic) but aren't on this list.

Not every ace has been recorded on video, but most have.
