Will MacKenzie dunks hole-in-one on the fly, doesn’t even know it
The two-time PGA Tour winner drops it right in the cup and just casually strolls back to his bag without celebration.

While the ball may end up in the same place for every hole-in-one, how it gets there can range from perfectly accurate to ugly and lucky. This is as accurate a hole-in-one shot as you’ll ever see.
Will MacKenzie lost the McGladrey Classic in a playoff Sunday night on Sea Island, but he definitely hit the shot of the weekend, tournament, and season so far. The ace never left the flagstick, jarring right into the cup and staying down. For whatever reason -- sun glare, the lack of a bounce and disappearing ball -- MacKenzie had no idea that he had just made the hole-in-one, casually walking back to his bag and caddie without celebration. It was a perfect shot, but he was also a bit fortunate that the flagstick didn’t spit it back out, as we saw with Thorbjorn Olesen on that cruel bounce at the PGA Championship.
The shot helped put him on the lead on Saturday, but Robert Streb would edge him in the playoff for the fall series win.
