Matt Wolff makes the first LIV Golf ace en route to taking the lead in Boston.
Matt Wolff made the first hole-in-one in LIV Golf history in the first round of the Boston tournament - and he did so to the cries of fans howling like wolves behind him as the ball was in the air.
Wolff's moment of magic came at the par-3 2nd from 178 yards, which you can watch below.

Wolff, 23, had been seriously struggling for form earlier this season but he bounced back with a runner-up finish behind Henrik Stenson in the last tournament at LIV Golf Bedminster.
And he has certainly started where he left off as he fired a superb 7-under par 63 to lead by one in the first round of LIV Golf Boston on Thursday.
The American started on the 16th hole in the shotgun start and despite a bogey on the tricky par-3 17th (his second hole), Wolff played the next six holes in 5-under par before adding another eagle to surge to the top of the board.
Wolff left the PGA Tour to join LIV Golf ahead of their second tournament in Portland at the end of June.
Six players are making their LIV Golf debuts this week, including World No.2 and Open champion Cameron Smith, Joaquin Niemann, Harold Varner III, Cameron Tringale, Anirban Lahiri and Marc Leishman.
Smith and Niemann performed best of the debutants with a pair of 64s, with Smith closing things out with a stunning 45-foot eagle putt on 18.
LIV Golf's last champion Henrik Stenson was forced out of this week's tournament due to a bout of vertigo, and he has been replaced by 18-year-old Shergo Al Kurdi.
