Top moments from the Masters Par 3 Contest

On Wednesday, Masters participants and past champions played the Par 3 Contest. In one of the cherished traditions of Masters week, the golfers play a shortened, nine-hole course, where anyone from wives and girlfriends to children and friends can serve as caddies.

According to the Masters, the holes range in length from 70 to 140 yards and play over DeSoto Springs Pond and Ike's Pond. In this year's edition of the event, 76 of the 88 Masters participants are slated to play.

Besides the family-friendly scene, the event is known for two things: A lot of holes-in-one and a superstition.

According to ESPN Stats and Information, there have been 107 aces in the 60-year history of the contest, with the most, 25, coming on hole No. 9. Scottie Schefflerhit the first hole-in-one on 9 since Webb Simpson did it in 2016.

It's also an event that many might not want to win since no Par 3 Contest winner has ever won the Masters. In 2011, Luke Donald came the closest, winning the Par 3 and finishing fourth in the tournament.

Here are some of the top moments from the Par 3 Contest:

Holes in one

Plenty of aces to go around, but let's give it up for Seamus Power. The 36-year-old Irishman managed back to back holes-in-one, only the third time that's ever happened at the contest.

It's all about family

Seeing the pros' families on the course with them is one of the treats of the Par 3 Contest, whether they're imitating their fathers or starting the easter egg hunt a little early.

Like father, like son: Kevin Kisner's son impersonates dad

After Kevin Kisner lips out a near ace, he throws his hat on the ground. His son then taps in the putt and throws down his club.

For some, the Easter egg hunt has already started. #themasters pic.twitter.com/aNKEK0Xz0y
