One of the most famous par threes in all of golf resides at TPC Scottsdale in Scottsdale, Arizona. Hole No. 16 is known for some of the rowdiest and most raucous crowds in all of golf at the Waste Management Open each year. And on Friday evening, Emiliano Grillo drilled a hole-in-one, setting off a massive beer shower and celebration.

Grillo currently sits at a tie for 36th, at 3-under part in the second round of the Waste Management Open. Hitting a slam dunk hole in one like that is truly a once-in-a-lifetime occasion, even for somebody as talented as a PGA Tour golfer.

Thomas Detry of Belgium currently leads the Waste Management Open. He carded a 64 in Round 2 to put him at 12-under for the event. Alex Smalley carded a 65 to sit at 10-under par after two days. Then there’s Tom Kim, who sits in third place at 9-under par after he carded a 66 on the second day.
