Now, here is the predicament I would like to experience.
During the second round of the Worldwide Technology Championship, Bo Hossler gets the ace The par 3 11th hole. He just didn't see it coming in.
When he arrived at the teeing ground, he was hovering around the cut line at 1 under for the championship. Hosler knew he had to be aggressive, so he aimed an 8-iron at the flag. He then hit a towering draw that painted his stick, and it landed about five feet short of the cup. His ball then bounced several times and fell to the bottom of the hole, earning him an ace. it is, First hole-in-one of PGA Tour career.
But Hossler, and for that matter his group, had no idea it had been infiltrated.
So much so that someone in the group asked, “Are you in?” And another person replied, “I don't think so.”
Even if the perspective was bad, the person who said it was wrong. Hosler certainly hit the ace, increasing his overall score to 3 under for the time being and moving to the right side of the cut line. As of this writing, Hosler is at 10 under for the day after 16 holes, a sharp contrast from Thursday's opening round where he shot a 4-over 76. Hossler also moved up 68 spots on the leaderboard, moving his total to 6 under.
Although he didn't see a hole-in-one, it greatly benefited his position on the leaderboard. And everyone will accept it, including you who are still looking for the first person.
