Think 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale during the Waste Management Phoenix Open. The crowd, and fans watching at home, knew Koepka loved his tee shot as he stared it down on the par-3 12th hole, which was nicknamed "The Watering Hole." Many patrons would grab a few refreshing beverages and post up there to see if anyone can come close to the rare hole-in-one.  CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM Chase Koepka walks to the green after his hole-in-one during the LIV Golf Adelaide at The Grange Golf Course on April 23, 2023, in Australia. (Mark Brake/Getty Images) The same happens during the Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale, as fans rush to the 16th green to get a spot in the stands where cheering is encouraged while golfers are about to hit their ball, which is obviously not normal anywhere else in the game.

Koepka was hoping to turn those cheers into roars at The Grange Golf Club with his ball striking the 12th hole green firmly before darting right toward the hole.

The ball slowly trickled its way to the flagstick and the anticipation was at its peak with everyone not breathing, waiting to see if it fell in.  VIRGINIA GOLF COURSE GM ARRESTED AFTER ALLEGEDLY FILMING INSIDE WOMEN'S RESTROOM FOR SEVERAL MONTHS: POLICE Once it did, the scene was wild.
