9 days after PGA Tour highlights his golf swing, tennis star Rafael Nadal makes an ace

He might be retired, but Rafael Nadal is still hitting perfect shots.

While the tennis world has its eyes firmly fixed on Wimbledon, one of the sport’s all-time greats enjoyed another athletic milestone — this time, on the golf course.

Nadal, the 22-time Grand Slam champion, provided us with yet another athletic feat when he made a hole-in-one. He posted the accomplishment at Alacanda Golf Club in Port d’Alcudia, Spain, to social media on Thursday with the caption: “A Hole-in-One doesn’t happen every day!”

Just over a week ago, the PGA Tour highlighted Nadal’s golf swing on its social channels (which is at 2.1 million views and counting), breaking down the tennis star’s golf swing, which can only be aptly described as unusual.

But, hey, whatever works, right? Well played, Rafa.
