2026 Tour Championship: Watch Justin Rose's slam dunk ace at No. 9

At the 2026 Tour Championship held at East Lake Golf Club, remarkable shots by Justin Rose and Si Woo Kim stole the spotlight on the final day of play. Rose, a 46-year-old English golfer, achieved a notable fourth hole-in-one in his career by sinking his 6-iron at the par-3 ninth hole. This powerful shot helped him post an even 35 on his front nine, wiping out damage from par-4 bogeys at the challenging No. 1 and No. 8 holes.

Rose's incredible feat was met with excitement on social media, with the Golf Channel tweeting, "SLAM DUNK FOR ROSE Justin Rose makes an ACE at the turn."

In contrast, Si Woo Kim, ranked No. 13 in the world, showcased his own spectacular shot at the par-4 10th hole. His approach shot traveled 120 yards onto the green before rolling into the hole, securing an eagle. Kim's eagle propelled him to 10 under on the tournament. However, he lost a stroke at No. 11 after missing his par putt attempt, leaving him at 9 under.

The back nine continued to be a rollercoaster of events for the Korean native, as he birdied the par-4 12th hole, moving inside the top 10 on the leaderboard. Unfortunately, Rose retaliated with a bogey at the same hole Kim eagled on, before a pair of back-to-back birdies helped him close the gap to 9 under through the first dozen holes of the final round.

Si Woo Kim followed up Rose’s ace with his own remarkable eagle, further intensifying the competition.
