Mark Hubbard, who grew up in Colorado, made waves on the PGA Tour on Thursday in Detroit. He hit a hole-in-one on hole No. 11 at the Rocket Mortgage Classic.

Hubbard, who was a prep star at Colorado Academy in Denver, was disgusted by the tee shot. After his swing on the 216-yard hole at the Detroit Golf Club he actually thought he had hit a bad shot and immediately let the iron fall out of his hands.

Instead, the ball landed right on the fairway in front of the green and bounced and rolled its way towards the pin, finally rolling around the rim of the hole and dropping in for an ace.

Hubbard was all smiles after the hole-in-one, and joked around with the members of his golfing party about what had happened.

The 2022 Rocket Mortgage Classic is the second-to-last regular season event on the PGA Tour schedule this year.
