Teen Shoots TWO Holes-In-One During SAME Round Of Golf
<snip>

WYLIE, Texas -- Chase Williams was awfully happy to make a hole-in-one during a recent round of golf. So, moments later, he did it again.

Williams, 16, got the first one Tuesday on his third hole of the day, the par 3, 17th, as he played in a Westcott Junior Tour event at Hawks Creek Golf Club in Fort Worth. His second came on the par 3, 10th.

The odds of making two aces in the same round are 67 million to one, according to the National Golf Foundation.

"I hit it well, it faded a little right, bounced, then rolled and hit the pin. We all heard it, but I was not sure if it went in until I got to the green," Williams said of the first hole-in-one. He used a pitching wedge from 120 yards.

He used a four wood from 190 yards for the second ace. "It hit on the front of the green, rolled up, hit the pin and went in. We could not believe it," Williams said.

Williams finished in fourth place.

Williams got the aces with the same ball. He said he didn't think about putting it away after the first. After almost losing it a couple of times, he had it in his pocket.

"I don't think I'll use it again," he said.

1. To quote the Who "the kids are alright."
I guess it was a couple weeks ago I heard about a young girl who plays little league who pitched a perfect game. There are major league pitchers who will never do that in the course of their entire career.
