(CNN) -

Let's talk birthday luck.

Jon Rahm, on his 26th birthday, potentially produced one of the best golf shots of all time during a practice round this week before the 2020 Masters.

His second in two days, Jon Rahm skips his way to a hole-in-one at No. 16 - on his birthday, no less.

The Spanish golfer bounced the ball across the pond on the 16th hole, as is tradition in the practice rounds leading up to the iconic major in Augusta, Georgia.

But after bouncing favorably when the ball landed on the other side, it went across the lush green of Augusta and finally down the hole for a remarkable hole-in-one.

Unsurprisingly, Rahm's extraordinary feat caused fans on Twitter to crumble, with words like "ridiculous" and "absurd" being used to describe him.

Some even called it "perhaps the best golf shot you've ever seen."

Sports reporter Tyler Greever called it "one of the most absurd things I've seen in sports."

And while Rahm's shot would likely have sent fans on the course delirious, he was only met with cheers from his fellow golfers and their caddies, as spectators are not allowed at the Masters in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
