VIDEO: Miguel Angel Jimenez does moonwalk following hole-in-one
No one knows how to play to a home crowd better than The Most Interesting Man in Golf, Miguel Angel Jimenez.
Playing in Spain at the EPGA's Open de Espana, where he is the reigning champion, Jimenez achieved an incredible milestone Friday and didn't fail to hide his excitement.
The Spaniard hit his EPGA record-tying ninth career ace at the par-3 eighth hole, and followed that up with what's becoming his signature celebration: the moonwalk.
Just the nine European Tour hole-in-ones then. https://t.co/6mEKmmHlnI #OpendeEspana

With the ace, Jimenez collected one of the greatest hole-in-one prizes ever - 288 bottles of beer. The number is the 72-hole par total of the tournament.
"The Mechanic" gave a similar celebration after this hole-in-one at Abu Dhabi this January.
Jimenez currently sits six shots back after three rounds of play at the Open de Espana, and continued playing to the camera on Saturday.
Good morning from Miguel. http://t.co/jhalGX6vMy
