Bellew, 41, made an albatross with just his second shot of the day on the 473-yard first hole, which is a par five for amateurs.
That sparked huge celebrations from Bellew and his caddie, who appeared to attempt to throw him to the ground.
Bellew then performed a forward roll and did some gun fingers in a style reminiscent of former Tottenham and Ireland striker Robbie Keane.
Fans were stunned by the achievement and some offered their congratulations.
One said: “You cannot help but love this man!!”
Another added: “Should be more Tony Bellews’s in this world, a cool positive guy ”
A third wrote: “That’s a great way to celebrate a triple birdie!”
