Back-to-back Aces. 17,000,000:1 odds against it ever happening.
But happen it did, Thursday in Kansas. Two golfers involved in match play against each other each hit a hole-in-one on the 17th hole.

Most amazing to me is that this par 3 is 212 yards. For me, a golfer who only ever plays on munis, that's a long one.

Imagine the excitement, walking up to the green, and finding the first hole-in-one covered by the second.

Well played guys!
