Rafael Nadal, the retired tennis star known for his powerful aces on the ATP Tour, recently achieved a hole-in-one at Alcanada Golf Club in Mallorca. The 39-year-old made this impressive shot on the par 3 14th hole from 167 meters while golfing with friends.
Nadal will soon compete in the amateur Balearic Golf Championship on the same course, hoping to replicate his recent success. This achievement comes after a PGA Tour video highlighted Nadal’s “unique swing,” which reflects his left-handed tennis backhand despite playing golf right-handed. The video has garnered over 2 million views.
Throughout his tennis career, Nadal hit a total of 4,009 aces according to Infosys ATP Stats. Now, he adds a golf ace to his list of accomplishments as he continues to find success beyond the tennis courts.
