The Masters are well underway and golfers are finishing up the second day of the iconic event. Most of the news revolving around the tournament surrounds Tiger Woods' triumphant return to the sport. After nearly losing his life in a car accident a little over a year ago, the legend is back doing what he loves.
However, other golfers are making remarkable, newsworthy moves in this year's Masters Tournament, one being Stewart Cink. The 48-year-old American golfer shot a hole-in-one on the 16th hole Friday afternoon. After watching the ball's seemingly endless journey to the cup, he embraced his son, Reagan.
Check out the amazing moment, shared by the PGA Tour.

Not to mention, Cink nailed the hit on his son's birthday, making the ace the perfect birthday present. Reagan has been serving as his father's full-time caddie since November of 2020.
Though a great shot and moment, Cink has a lot of catching up to do in the second half of the Masters. He is +7 overall through two full rounds, and finished +3 Friday afternoon. Cink's performance Friday, including his 16th hole stunner, bumped him up six positions on the Masters' leaderboard, now in a five-way tie for 65th overall.
Meanwhile, halfway through the tournament, American golfer Scottie Scheffler leads the tournament and Woods fell to 20th in a five-way tie.
