WATCH: Lee Trevino & Nelly Korda make hole-out eagles at PNC Championship

The PNC Championship is all about fun and a pair of golfers were certainly having a blast on Sunday.

In the final round at The Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando, there were a couple of impressive hole-outs, one from the sand, another from the fairway.

The first came courtesy of LPGA star Nelly Korda, playing alongside dad Petr. As the NBC announcers were talking about Team Korda needing a birdie, she did them one better, holing her shot for eagle on the par-5 third hole.

A while later, Team Trevino got in on the fun. The 86-year-old legend, the only golfer to have participated in every PNC event since it launched in 1995, is teamed with son Daniel. The duo eagled the par-5 third and then ripped off four straight birdies right after that.

After five straight pars, Lee hit his second on the par-4 13th, slowed it down with some backspin and then watched it roll in the hole like a putt for an eagle.

“I’ve been digging worms,” Trevino told Todd Lewis on Golf Channel after the round, describing his recent struggles with his short game but adding: “I hit a 60-degree with a little draw” on that eagle chip.
