Watch: Amateur sinks 132-yard eagle on first career hole at British Open

Montojo, a rising junior at Texas A&M University, is playing in his first career major championship. He qualified for the 152nd British Open with a T2 finish at a qualifying event at Royal Cinque Ports in early July — with his mother serving as his caddie. 

The Madrid, Spain native ranked third on the Texas A&M men's golf team in scoring average (71.31) last year, and he won the Aggie Invitational for his first collegiate victory. A few months later, he's holing out from 132 yards in his first-ever start at a major. 

It took Montojo only two shots to leap to second place on the British Open leaderboard at 2-under par. It's unlikely he'll stay there for the rest of the week, but what a memory that will be for the talented youngster.
