Alvaro hole in one on the par 4 at the Olympic!

Need I write anymore? Imagine a three under par single hole, and what it would do to your scorecard!! Amazing. Pity I'd go and make a double to follow it up...:mmm:

Bets on him not making a birdie once this week on that hole? Sods law!

Love the fact they point out "using a 9.5 degree driver" - I thought he used a Callaway RAZR FIT myself (worst tag line in golf history IMO).
Seriously though, that would be some confidence boost on one hand and then a nagging 'why couldn't I have waited til it counted' train of thought just to balance it up.

He's slipping - 288 yards with a driver!
Was it a half-swing or something...?

Sounds like weird hole at 288yds par 4.. you'd think it would at least be a tough hole and not something you're gonna pull a driver at

It is just practice day so maybe he was just having a bit of fun and entertaining the crowd

probably, I do similar on bounce games and when I'm being watched, eagles, birdies are the order of the day, then when I have a card in my hand I play like a twit (sp)

Pretty sure it was reported as a 3 wood.

250/1. Worth an each way?
