A Sidney golfer defied all odds and managed to score not just one hole-in-one, but two back-to-back holes-in-one at a Saanich golf course.
While playing at Ridge Golf Course with his eight-year-old son, longtime golfer Jordan Rintoul scored two aces in a row on March 30.
B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 a pretty surreal feeling like, you know, IB次元官网网址檝e had two other old ones in my golfing career and both of them came in competitive golf situations,B次元官网网址 said Rintoul. B次元官网网址淭here was an elderly couple playing behind us and the woman, she saw both of them and I think she was more excited than I was. It was pretty crazy.B次元官网网址
After paring the first four holes of the nine-hole course, he managed to ace the 70-yard fifth hole, and when he stepped up to the sixth hole, which is 89 yards, he repeated the feat. Both holes are par three.
According to the National Hole-In-One Registry, making consecutive holes-in-one is a one in 67 million occurrence.
B次元官网网址淚t was pretty neat to experience it with with my kid right. A funny thing he said was because a woman behind me said B次元官网网址業B次元官网网址檓 gonna give you my email address because I donB次元官网网址檛 think many people are gonna believe this actually happened. IB次元官网网址檒l attest to it and this and that.B次元官网网址 And then I said, B次元官网网址楴o, no, itB次元官网网址檚 fine. IB次元官网网址檝e got my son here with meB次元官网网址 and my son piped up and he said, B次元官网网址榥o, IB次元官网网址檓 gonna tell everybody that it just didnB次元官网网址檛 happenB次元官网网址 and that was kind of icing on the cake,B次元官网网址 he said
Rintoul, who has been playing since his grandparents bought him a set of clubs when he was four, scored four under par for the nine holes.
