Pat at Brainster had a post about a suburban Milwaukee man who hit two holes-in-one in one round of golf. The up-till-now struggling golfer had a go at 18-holes just 25 times, never breaking 100.
From the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel:
On June 24, (Sanjay) Kuttemperoor made two holes-in-one in a five-hole span at Treetops Resort in Treetops Village, Mich. He used his Callaway 8-iron on both shots.
Lloyds of London set the odds for such a feat at 67 million to 1. Based on those odds, a golfer would have to play a round of golf 365 days a year for 183,561 years to accomplish it.
Kuttemperoor did it in, oh, about 35 minutes.
But Kuttemperoor's feat pales in the shadow of the golfing prowess of North Korea's "Dear Leader," Kim Jong Il.
From CNN in 2004:
North Korean publications describe Kim Jong Il as a renaissance man who has flown fighter aircraft, written operas and shot 11 holes-in-one in his first try at golf.
That's why I don't golf--I can't bear to live in the shadow of Kim's greatness.
