It didn't take long for the "watering hole" to deliver an electric moment at LIV Adelaide.

Just a few minutes into the first round, Patrick Reed made an ace at the par-3 12th hole, which was his second hole of the day.

After making the early ace, the rabid Australian crowd went wild, showering the tee box with beer.

Last week, Reed finished T44 at LIV Riyadh. The former Masters champion is yet to win a LIV individual tournament.

At the end of the first round, the Majesticks's Sam Horsfield leads LIV Adelaide at 6 under. Reed finished the round at 1 over, which is currently T37.

Stars Joaquin Niemann (-5), Dustin Johnson (-4), Bryson DeChambeau (-4), Brooks Koepka (-3), Tyrrell Hatton (-2) and Jon Rahm (-2) all remain in the mix.

LIV Adelaide will undoubtedly be one of LIV's busiest events, as the fans are out in full force at the Grange Golf Club.

The broadcast from 9-11 p.m. will be available on the Fox Sports app, followed from 11 p.m.-2 a.m. on FS1.
