The Odds of Making a Hole-in-One

A hole-in-one, that elusive goal: what are the odds of actually making one? According to Golf Digest magazine (September ‘05), the odds are as follows:
- Odds of a Tour player making a hole-in-one: 1 in 3756
- Odds of a low-handicap player making a hole-in-one: 1 in 5000
- Odds of an average player making a hole-in-one: 1 in 12,750.
In addition, the odds of one player (of any skill level) making two holes-in-one in the same round is 1 in 67 million.
Wishing you a hole-in-one in 2008!
