Two holes aced in same round

Up early for a round of golf at Leisure World’s Turtle Lake Golf Course, Dec. 4 was just another Wednesday for Patty Littrell. But this was not going to be a normal round. On hole No. 5, Littrell put her ball on the tee, took her usual practice swing, and then hit the ball. To everyone’s delight, the ball went in the hole for a hole-in-one. Littrell then got to hole No. 8. She put her ball on the tee, took her practice swing, and then hit the ball. And in went another hole in one. This is more than rare—some say there is a 1 in 67 million chance that this could occur Littrell’s two holes-in-one were witnessed by Pam Krug, the current Women’s Golf Club president.
