Buckley’s first career hole-in-one came in 2021 at the Shriners Children’s Open, also on the 17th hole in the first round. 

"I had a little feeling something like that might happen this week. I don't know, I've been hitting it well, but it's always nice to see it happen on that hole, too," Buckley said after the round, via Golf Channel. 

Buckley, who started on the back nine, shot a 73 after making two bogeys and two doubles to close out the first round.
