Watch: This pro followed up a quadruple bogey with an ace at DP World Tour’s acciona Open de Espana

It’s always a good thing when you can rebound with a good score after taking a few too many strokes on a hole.

And that’s what Daniel Gavins did Thursday at the acciona Open de Espana. He was 2 under after his first seven holes at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid in Spain when he found some trouble on the par-4 eighth.

His tee shot drifted left, so he had to pitch back into the fairway for his second. His third shot sailed over the green, and it took him three shots to get out of the rough and onto the putting surface. Two putts, and he marked an 8 on the card.

It took him seven fewer strokes to play the next hole, the 177-yard par-3 ninth.

The ace allowed Gavins to make the turn in even-par 36. The 31-year-old Englishman has one DP World Tour win in his career.
