Australia's Cam Davis narrowly misses hole-in-one shot at Phoenix Open, video

Australian golfer Cam Davis almost achieved a feat not seen on the PGA Tour for 25 years as he continued his run at the Phoenix Open.

The 30-year-old from Sydney sits at two-under par following the first two rounds at one of the year’s most exciting and popular events.

Davis will play over the weekend in Phoenix after making the cut, tied in 52nd spot.

But it was one moment from Davis that set tongues wagging and almost etched his name into the sport’s history books.

On the par-four 17th hole, Davis nailed a tremendous tee shot that narrowly rolled past the hole, before nailing a short eagle putt.

Had the tee shot gone in, it would have marked the first par-hour hole-in-one on the PGA Tour for well over two decades.

“This is aggressive over there … this is fantastic,” commentator Taylor Zarzour said.

“We have not had an ace on a Par 4 since Andrew McGee did it decades ago on the PGA Tour – and that’s about as close we’ve seen for eagle.”

Davis sits nine shots behind Japan’s Ryo Hisatsune, who is -11 after two rounds, one shot clear of countryman Hideki Matsuyama.

Min Woo Lee is the best of the Aussies so far, sitting six-under following two rounds.

Play will resume on Sunday morning (AEDT) at TPC Scottsdale, with approximately $13 million worth of prize money up for grabs.
