Mandatory Credit: Bill Streicher-Imagn Images OAKMONT, Pa. -- Frenchman Victor Perez carded a hole-in-one at the par-3 sixth hole on Friday in the second round of the 125th U.S. Open.
Perez's ace was the first in a U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club since Scott Simpson accomplished the feat in 1983 during the first round at the par-3 16th hole.
Taking aim at the 192-yard hole on Friday, Perez used his seven-iron to fire a shot that landed approximately 15 feet short of the cup. The ball bounced three times on the green before curling into the hole.
Perez, 32, raised his arms in the air and chest-bumped his caddie James Erkenbeck.
An ace for the Frenchman! ????
