A hole in one is a rare sight. And an ace on a par four is rare indeed.
Richard Green had that rare delight while playing in a pro-am on the PGA Australia Tour.
His shot was headed for the bunker but got the most favorable of bounces.
“I noticed the tee was up from where we played it last year, I thought it was a good opportunity to get up near the green and contend for birdies during the week,” he said. “I thought I would hit a driver and see what happens, I just pushed it a little bit, it was a good shot, but I knew it was going in the bunker so I was completely oblivious to the fact that it had made its way to the hole somehow.”
“I haven’t had anything like that happen before, I have had hole in ones during tournaments but they have been shots that have landed by the hole and found their way in,” added Green.”They were fantastic moments but an albatross, I have never come close. They are something that may never happen to someone in their career as a Professional.”
An ace, an albatross and the memory of a lifetime all in one shot.
