2022 June 2 – Something happened at Minneapolis Golf Club today that has likely NEVER happened in the history of golf.
13 year old Preston Miller (St Louis Park, MN) aced the 121 yard hole #4 with a 7-iron while playing with his High School team coaches. He continued using the hole-in-one ball and unfortunately lost it on hole 7.
When hanging in the clubhouse after the round for a celebratory pop, another golfer entered sharing the good news that he, too, had a hole-in-one today. Preston extended his congrats and shared that he aced #4 earlier but proceeded to lose his SLP golf team logo’d hole-in-one ball several holes later.
Shockingly, Minneapolis Golf Club member Ricardo Fernandez shared that he had FOUND Preston’s ball on hole 7 and, when stepping up to play a later par 3, randomly grabbed Preston’s ball out of his bag – unaware of what had happened earlier. Ricardo then proceeded to ACE the 181 yard 16th hole, meaning ONE ball had 2 hole-in-ones on the SAME DAY at the SAME COURSE by 2 DIFFERENT GOLFERS.
