The Masters Par 3 contest is a lighthearted affair, but it can also be a money-making opportunity for those who hit a hole-in-one. Justin Thomas, a two-time major winner, made an ace on the second hole of the Par 3 course, and he didn't miss the chance to collect a small fortune from his playing partners, Jordan Spieth and Max Homa. Thomas revealed that their hole-in-one game involved a $1,000 bet, with Spieth and Homa on the hook to pay up. This isn't the first time Spieth has been on the receiving end of Thomas' aces; in 2016, they made back-to-back holes-in-one, and Spieth had to pay up then as well. It's a funny twist of fate that Spieth, with his $67 million in career earnings, and Homa, with his $29 million, will now have to part with $1,000 each. The Masters Par 3 contest is a unique tradition, and it adds an element of friendly competition and potential financial gain to the already prestigious event. It's a reminder that even in a game as serious as golf, a little bit of fun and the possibility of a quick buck can always be found.
