Unlucky for some, but not for Shane Lowry.
The Offaly man hit the ace on the second day of the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai, beautifully striking a six-iron from 183 yards right into the middle of the hole, taking him to -7 overall and within one shot of leader Henrik Stenson.
HOLE IN ONE ALERT! @ShaneLowryGolf makes his first professional hole in one at the 14th hole. #DPWTC http://t.co/GG6qYP4x8g

Rory McIlroy was on hand to congratulate him immediately afterwards and boy, did Lowry look happy about it.
Mighty stuff.
