Six-time Masters champion Nicklaus was playing alongside fellow icons Gary Player and Tom Watson ahead of the tournament’s tee-off on Thursday.

The legendary trio have 11 green jackets between them but it was Nicklaus’ grandson - caddying for the Golden Bear - who provided the star turn with a stunning hole in one.

At the age of 68, Watson rolled back the years by claiming victory in the par-three contest on six under, but the lasting memory will be Nicklaus’ grandson holing this beauty at the ninth, superbly commentated on by Player.
