The moon-walking "Mechanic" keeps gaining more fans.

At an awards dinner ahead of the European Tour's BMW PGA Championship, Rory McIlroy had to tell Miguel Angel Jimenez he was his "hero". He then proceeded to do the Spaniard's patented hole-in-one dance that Jimenez pulled out at Abu Dhabi in January and in Barcelona in early May.

Skip ahead to 2:31 to watch the meeting.

And of course, it would be later that week when Jimenez would break out the moves again after draining his European Tour record 10th career ace. Jimenez would finish tied for second at the event while McIlroy missed the cut.

The meeting between the two golfers was taped as part of #SeasonPass, which is a behind-the-scenes look at the European Tour.
