A golfer who was declared the club’s champion in style did so by partaking in two holes in one during the first round.

When Gavin Bourne managed to pull off the incredible feat in Sunday’s Club Championship Match Play Final at Droitwich Golf Club in Worcestershire, he was competing in the amazing feat.

On the third and fifteenth holes, he had the best of two aces in a round that was thought to be 67 million to one, according to England Golf.

When he received his first ace, the 47-year-old, who has a handicap of 0.4, was playing in the first round of the 36-hole final.

“I hit it,” he said. When it arrived, Tom, my playing partner, said, “That’s in that is,” Mr. Bourne explained, “it was bang on line.”

There was only one ball on the green and a pitch mark about three feet in front of the hole when Tom also hit it, according to the article.

I was shocked, to be honest, because it was obviously every golfer’s dream to have a hole in one.

Arms in air

Our club captain, who was actually watching the ball go in, kept his composure until Tom hit his tee shot, and all of a sudden he appeared with his arms in the air.

I just pointed forward and said, “It’s up there somewhere,” and he put his arms in the air once more and took a picture of the hole.

I thought, “No way, no way,” You’re making a me-out here, sir.

When Mr. Bourne realized what he had accomplished, he claimed he was shocked and numb.

The heating engineer, who has played golf for more than 30 years, claimed that he only had one hole-in-one as a junior despite having two aces on his own during evening rounds, the last of which came more than ten years ago.

In keeping with tradition, he continued, adding that he received a bottle of whiskey and some beverages afterward.

He claimed that his abilities have now enabled him to qualify for the Faldo Commemoration Jug at Sir Nick Faldo’s course in a Champion of Champions.
