2 consecutive hole-in-ones on par 4
Two consecutive hole-in-ones were made on a par-4 at Mungyeong Golf Club, North Gyeongsang Province, Wednesday, the golf club announced Thursday.
A 57-year-old man teed off at the 290-meter sixth at around 1:30 p.m. His ball found the cup for an albatross. A 50-year-old man in the next group also had a hole-in-one on the same hole.
The golf club said hole-in-ones are normally made on par-3s and that it is quite rare, particularly for amateur golfers, to make a hole-in-one albatross, and especially two in a row.
