Watch: Jack Nicklaus' grandson aces the final hole at The Masters Par 3 Contest

Masters week always brings the drama, and this was no exception.

Masters week always brings flare and drama unlike any other golf event in the world, and on Wednesday the excitement burst through the roof when a kid in a caddy's jumpsuit aced the final hole of the Par 3 Contest. 

The kid: Jack Nicklaus' grandson, Gary. Here's the shot. 

The amazing part is that he was caddying Nicklaus, who decided to let the 15-year-old take the last tee shot of the day. 

The Masters begins Thursday in Augusta, Georgia, and Tiger Woods and Jordan Spieth are favored to win with 10:1 odds, according to Sporting News.
