Rowdy fans throw beer at golfers to celebrate Chase Koepka’s hole-in-one in crazy scenes at LIV Golf event in Adelaide

GOLF fans celebrated Chase Koepka's incredible hole-in-one by showering the American in beer.

Koepka, the younger brother of four-time major winner Brooks, aced the par-three 12th hole to spark wild scenes at LIV Golf's Adelaide Event in Australia.

The 32-year-old's hole-in-one came at the aptly named 'watering hole'.

The 12th hole at The Grange Golf Club has been turned into a 'party hole' for LIV's event.

And there were wild scenes as Koepka sunk a superb hole-in-one on Sunday.

The crowd erupted and showered Koepka with cups of beer in chaotic scenes as his ball trickled into the hole.

Koepka himself jumped for joy and hugged his caddie after throwing his golf club on the floor in celebration while beer rained down on him from the stands.

He was also congratulated by playing partners Ian Poulter and Paul Casey.

Koepka ended up finishing the event in T24 on -10, nine shots behind winner Talor Gooch who scooped £3.2million in prize money.

But it was a day to remember for the American as he registered an incredible hole-in-one.

Taking to after the incredible scenes, Koepka wrote: "Day I’ll never forget thanks Adelaide for making this one special!"

LIV star Phil Mickleson said the "alcohol has been flowing" in Adelaide, where tickets were reported to be fully sold out across all three days of the event.

Mickleson said: "Last few holes, alcohol has been flowing, that's great, and maybe it might be a little bit louder and stuff, but that's what we want.

"We want golf but louder. We want a different environment.

"We want a not stuffy environment, and that's what we're trying to create, and that's what people here in Australia have kind of embraced."
