Bates fikk hole in one to ganger på samme runde!!!
26.12 Hole in one:
Litt av hvert - 103 år og hole in
one
Hole in one er ikke dagligdags. Her er noen småhistorier.
Noen går gjennom sitt golfliv uten å oppleve hole in one på eget scorekort.
Andre får flere.
Ny rekord
Nå er det satt ny aldersrekord for hole in one. I 2007 fikk 102 år gamle Elsie
McLean became hole in one og satte med det ny aldersrekord. Nå er hun imidlertid
"bare" den eldste kvinne som med denne bragden. 103 år gamle Gus Andreone satte
nemlig ny rekord da han 17. desember fikk hole in one med sin driver fra 102
meter på Palm Aire Country Club i Sarasota i Florida.
Han er PGA Pro og har spilt til sin alder siden han var 67 år gammel. Nå regner
han 90 som par på banen og slår sin egen alder hver gang han spiller.
Verdens eldste hole in one-mann døde i 2002.

Sannsynligheten for å få hole in one?
Det er kanskje ikke så lett å beregne dette nøyaktig, men det er gjort en del
undersøkelser på saken. Bedre spillere har selvsagt større sannsynlighet for å
få hole in one enn dårlige spillere.
Her er en artikkel som Golfsiden.no skrev i år 2000 om sannsynligheten for hole
in one. (Design på siden har hatt en viss framgang, men kanskje ikke så veldig
mye.) Les mer
Samtidig
Her er en artikkel om to stykker som fikk hole in one omtrent samtidig:

Hole in one på par 4 hull
Her er historien om den eneste hole in one på PGA Touren på et par 4 hull. Fra
golf.about.com
In the history of the PGA Tour, there has been only one hole-in-one to date on a
par-4 hole. It happened at TPC Scottsdale, home of the Phoenix Open (then called
the FBR Open).
The hole was No. 17, the year was 2001, and the golfer was Andrew Magee. But the
circumstances were anything but normal.
Magee, just an average driver of the ball, didn't think he'd be able to reach
the green on the hole, which that day measured 332 yards from tee to green. So
he didn't wait for the group ahead to clear the green. Instead, he teed up, and
- steaming over a double bogey one hole earlier - muscled up. He let loose with
the driver, and his golf ball went farther than he expected.
The ball went so far that it ran up onto the green while the group of Steve Pate,
Gary Nicklaus (yes, Jack's son) and Tom Byrum were still putting. Magee's ball
bounded onto the green and caught Pate by surprise, who jumped out of the way
and warned Nicklaus a golf ball was coming. But Byrum was squatting down
studying the line of his putt and failed to notice.
Magee's ball ran through Byrum's legs and struck Byrum's putter. The ball
ricocheted off Byrum's putter, caromed about eight feet, and dropped right into
the cup. Hole in one. Ace. And still the only par-4 ace on the PGA Tour, and
surely one of the more unusual aces of any kind in tour history.
The incident also produced a fantastic quip from Nicklaus' caddie, Rusty Uresti,
who said afterward, "It was the first putt Tom (Byrum) made all day."
Alas, no video exists of Magee's par-4 hole-in-one hitting Byrum's putter or
dropping into the cup.
I pro-am
Aces on par-4 holes on other tours both preceded and followed Magee's at the
2001 Phoenix Open. In 2013, Jason Kokrak aced a 409-yard par-4 hole at the PGA
Tour's McGladrey Classic - but not in the tournament itself, rather in the
pro-am that preceded the tournament.
Hooters Tour
On the Hooters Tour (a third-level tour in the United States) in 2006, Andrew
Tschudin aced a 357-yard par-4 during the tour's Bayou Classic.
Hio på to hull etter hverandre på Europa Tourens forløper
I den fete headingen lengre opp på siden har du lest om PGa Tourens hole in one
på et par 4 hull. Her er historien om han som fikk hole in one på et par 3 hull
og gikk rett til neste tee og fikk hole hole in one igjen. Golf.about.com har
skrevet om dette på denne måten:
Med henvisning til ovenfor nevnte psr 4 hole in one på PGA Touren skriver
nettstedet:
"But there was a par-4 ace on the European Tour 30 years earlier - and much more
remarkably, it was the second of back-to-back aces by the same golfer!
OK, technically, it didn't happen on the European Tour. It was 1971 and the
European Tour didn't officially exist until 1972. But the tournament was the
Martini International (James Bond's favorite), an event that existed from
1961-83 and was part of the European Tour from the beginning in 1972. Its
winners included Peter Thomson , Christy O'Connor Sr., Peter Alliss, Greg
Norman, Seve Ballesteros and Nick Faldo. It was legit, in other words.
The golfer was John Hudson, a journeyman English player who spent parts
of several season on the Euro Tour and later played the European Seniors Tour
for several seasons.
So: John Hudson is playing the 1971 Martini International. It's the second round
and Hudson reaches the 12th hole at Royal Norwich Golf Club in Norwich, England.
It's a par-3, 195 yards. He chooses his 4-iron. And boom - hole-in-one.
Hudson proceeds to the next hole, the 13th, where he takes out driver because
it's a par-4 - 311 yards, downhill from an elevated tee box . And boom - that
one rolls into the hole, too! Back-to-back aces, including one on a par-4.
Amazing.
I imagine Hudson felt both shaken and stirred.
Hudson eventually finished tied for ninth and won £160, which was one of his
best checks. At the time this article was written, Hudson was still in golf as
the club pro at Rivenhall Oaks Golf Centre in Witham, Essex, England.
Hudson's feat remains the only known instance of back-to-back aces by the same
golfer in the same round in a tournament on one of the world's significant
professional tours.
