A D3 golfer aced the same hole twice on the same day Monday at the Chick-Fil-A Invitational in Rome, Georgia.


Found this info about the odds of something like this happening.

However, with the help of the National Hole-in-One Registry, we can get a good idea of the odds. According to the authority on aces, the likelihood of an average golfer making a single hole-in-one is 12,000 to 1.

Phillips is no average golfer, though. Fortunately, they also provide the stats for a low-handicapper making an ace: 5,000 to 1.

But when the question changes to the likelihood of one golfer making two holes-in-one in the same round, the odds plummet to 67 million to 1.

Phillips didn’t technically make two aces in the same round; it took him 19 holes. But the fact that his two aces came on the same hole potentially makes his feat even more unlikely.
 




Go Gophers!!

Damn. One of my elementary school teachers aced the same hole twice in about 10 days a while back but this is something that will never be duplicated.

Does hole-in-one insurance cover the same hole twice in one day?
