Holes-in-one are a rare occurrence for a golfer. The probability of making a hole-in-one for an average player is roughly 12,500-to-1. The chances of two people getting an Ace on the same hole on the same day are in the 17 million-to-1 range. Add in a third person, hitting from the same tees and the statistics are beyond belief.
At Rosebud Country Club on Tuesday 10th January, in the ladies competition, 3 Hole-in-Ones on the same hole occurred. Members Jan Brown, Narelle Colahan and guest Suzanne Lynch all ‘Aced’ the par 3, 14th Hole on the South Course.
“We average 15 hole-in-ones annually” says Danny McGrath, Rosebud Country Club General Manager. “In all my years in the industry, I have never had three aces in one day, it’s a wonderful achievement for the ladies!”
