No, that wasn’t Tiger Woods kicking off his final-round Honda Classic tour of PGA National’s Bear Trap by celebrating a hole-in-one on No. 15.

And it wasn’t the former world No. 1 tossing his club in jubilation when his tee shot hit the green and rolled into the cup on Sunday.

Woods may be nearby, staying horizontal in his Jupiter, Fla., digs, but it was Jhonattan Vegas doing the 14-time major champ’s trademark Sunday red and black proud when he and his 6-iron aced the par-3 15th.

Vegas fired a 6-under 64 to finish at 7-under for the week — six shots back of Rickie Fowler before the 54-hole leader splashed one off the tee at the par-4 sixth.

Vegas was not the only golfer to post an eagle-1 on the first of three challenging holes that can derail the round of the best of ‘em. Scott Stallings (-2 with three to play on Sunday) did the honors in Thursday’s opening round.
