Golfer’s Mis-hit Leads To Hole In One (On The Wrong Hole)

January 19, 2009
Posted by US Hole In One

All golfers have done it at least once in their career. You step up to the tee box, tee up the ball and take a full powered drive at the ball only to have sliced the ball so badly that it actually ends up in the fairway of a different hole. Most of the time, it is slightly embarrassing and somewhat frustrating to walk over and search a different hole for your ball. However, in this one case the golfer described it as a “great feeling.” Why? Because he didn’t hit the fairway or the rough of the wrong hole, he actually hit the green and the ball went in the hole!

Clive Seymour teed up on the 10th tee but his drive took a different route and his ball ended up in the hole on the fourth green. He said “it’s a great feeling, even if it was in the wrong hole.” Seymour, 74 years old was still the talk of the tournament even though his ace didn’t win him any prizes that day. Clive had quite the interesting story to tell to his six grandchildren that day. Who knows whether hole #10 or #4 were even par 3’s but there is no doubt that Seymour will always remember his unconventional hole in one.
