Dan Bradbury Aiming to Set New European Tour Record for Holes-in-One

Dan Bradbury, a 24-year-old golfer from England, is on a mission to set a new European Tour record for holes-in-one. After making his third hole-in-one of the season at the Spanish Open, Bradbury has now equaled Miguel Angel Jimenez’s record of three holes-in-one in a single season.

During the event in Madrid, Bradbury achieved his latest hole-in-one on the 226-yard par-three third. Excited about his achievement, he now has his sights set on making a record-breaking fourth hole-in-one during the rest of the campaign. Bradbury stated, “Now I know that, I’ll be aiming at all the par threes, that’s for sure.”

Bradbury’s first hole-in-one occurred in Abu Dhabi in January, and he repeated this impressive feat at the SDC Championship two months later. He showcased his exceptional skills during the Spanish Open, hitting a remarkable eight-under-par 63 in round three, which was the lowest score of the day. His rounds one and two scores were 71 and 69, respectively, bringing him to a total of 10 under par and moving him into contention.

As Bradbury competes in the Spanish Open, he currently sits six shots behind the leader, Matthieu Pavon of France. Fellow Englishmen Nathan Kimsey and Eddie Pepperell are in second and third place, respectively, with Kimsey at 14 under par and Pepperell at 11 under par. Bradbury expressed his satisfaction with his performance, saying, “Front nine was fantastic, I got off to a hot start. I’ve made a few holes-in-one now, and it’s the first time I’ve kept it going, so that’s nice.”

Not only is Bradbury aiming to break the record for holes-in-one in a single season, but he also has a chance to surpass another record held by Jimenez. The Spaniard currently holds the highest total number of holes-in-one on the European Tour, with his tenth hole-in-one achieved at the 2015 BMW PGA Championship.

In conclusion, Dan Bradbury is making waves in the world of golf as he strives to set a new European Tour record for holes-in-one. With three already under his belt this season, he is eagerly targeting a fourth. Bradbury’s impressive performance and determination make him one to watch as he continues to leave his mark on the golfing world.
