After playoff loss last year, Patrick Cantlay aces way back into Heritage contention
Patrick Cantlay highlighted a 6-under 65 on Friday at the RBC Heritage with a hole-in-one at the par-3 seventh.
"Yeah, it was just a perfect 6-iron number, a little into the wind, high 190s (yards) to the hole. A one-yard cut that just came off perfect," said Cantlay, who was more subdued in making the ace than those who witnessed it. "Yeah, [the fans] went nuts. There's a bunch of fans around that seventh green, so it was nice to show off for them a little bit."
Starting on the back nine at Harbour Town, Cantlay made five birdies and two bogeys over his inward half. He was more stable on the front side, his second nine, with one birdie and the hole-in-one.
