American golfer Matthew Wolff created history in the Saudi-backed breakaway Live Golf league with the first hole-in-one. It carried him to a 7-under 63 in the LIV Golf Invitational Series in Boston on Friday. Wolff is tied for the lead with Talor Gooch.<\/p>\n

Wolff seized his share of the lead with the help of two eagles. <\/p>\n

Wolff made his ace on the 178-yard second hole, his fifth of the round. The ball took one-hop and disappeared into the cup for the first ace in the fourth LIV Golf Invitational series. The former Oklahoma State star had another eagle on the par-5 12th hole to go along with six birdies. Those offset three bogeys and was enough for him to take the lead.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was really cool to do that on a part of the golf course where there\u2019s a lot of fans, and to be the first one to have an ace at LIV Golf is really good,\u201d said Wolff, whose tee shot at the 178-yard second hole \u2014 his fifth \u2014 bounced once and rolled into the cup.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m thrilled and stuff, but I\u2019d rather be holding that trophy at the end of the week,\u201d added Wolff, who also eagled the par-five 12th.<\/p>\n

LIV Golf tournaments are 54-hole events (in contrast to the 72-hole competitions on the regular tours). <\/p>\n

The 48 players in the field are divided into four-man teams for the three-day contests, which provide guaranteed prize money much more than what is on offer on the other tours, where a golfer doesn\u2019t get any prize money if he doesn\u2019t make the halfway cut. <\/p>\n

LIV Golf events have a shotgun start, as against a staggered one on other tours, and there\u2019s an individual as well as team champion for every tournament.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
