# Seven is The Lucky Number
- [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share)
We’ve talked about miracles on the green before – in this blog where we talked about one-in-a-million shots made by our favourite pro golfers. But then we decided – why not look further into those odds? For example, a PGA Tour Pro’s chances for a hole in one is [about 1 in 3000, while an average players odds are more to the tune of one in 12,000](http://golf.about.com/od/faqs/f/holeinoneodds.htm). Further investigation revealed some pretty amazing golf feats that definitely beat the odds – by both pros and the amateurs.
1. **Family of Champions**
In a three-day span on a course in Wales, a mother, father, and son each made a hole in one. The odds? 10 million to 1. If only my family was that talented…

1. **A Shocking Good Shot**
[Lee Trevino](http://golf.about.com/od/leetrevino/p/lee_trevino.htm), one of golf’s most successful and popular players, was hit by lightning twice, something in the odds of 1 in 360,000,000,000. Does that give him golf-themed super powers?

1. **Two for the Price of One**
The chances of making two consecutive holes in a round of golf for a pro are 1 in 67 million. But that didn’t stop [John Hudson](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=8&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CDsQFjAH&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.espn.go.com%2Fjohn-hudson-golfer%2Fgolf%2F38&ei=2ufcVMGoNo7hsASRj4DgBQ&usg=AFQjCNEwHU7SSZe_QxW_d683r7h24UY8Fg&sig2=W30LBpshtUnY4mdFSthlUA&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw), from achieving this particular miracle when he holed two consecutive holes-in-one on the 11th and 12th holes in the 1971 [Martini Tournament](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martini_International) in Norwich, England. I wonder what his luck with lottery tickets are, and whether or not he’s for hire?

1. **Four-in-One**
In the second round of the 1989 [US Open](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CB0QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.usopen.org%2F&ei=NejcVOCaGaG_sQTMiYHoAg&usg=AFQjCNF1N2vYLo7va2okNWNEBendAgyLNQ&sig2=LsAWL03kUrslIs5erR6Aiw&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw) at [Oak Hill Country club](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&sqi=2&ved=0CB4QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oakhillcc.com%2F&ei=W-jcVI-DIoSHyQSinoFA&usg=AFQjCNF9CMdegm0yscyxqLGrV2tL7L7yjQ&sig2=KfNEjEjSOYEOgNfZ9tQr5g&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw), four competitors, [Doug Weaver](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=13&cad=rja&uact=8&sqi=2&ved=0CE8QFjAM&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pga.com%2Fprofessionals%2Fdoug-e-weaver-pga&ei=eOjcVKeuAoaGyQSp04DoDA&usg=AFQjCNFtF2G5aU4JrPicZL328rYWfusTQA&sig2=EYveQOUo3ao8rX-PEP8F-Q&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw), [Mark Wiebe](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=8&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CDUQFjAH&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pgatour.com%2Fplayers%2Fplayer.02279.mark-wiebe.html&ei=lOjcVKSOK5LIsQTNuoGIDQ&usg=AFQjCNEgnSo55Yrsp3w0snT009j7zwJUyw&sig2=l21tLvQroCWwMCov23c11A&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw), [Jerry Pate](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=4&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CDMQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pgatour.com%2Fplayers%2Fplayer.01925.jerry-pate.html&ei=p-jcVOL7GIG1sATSiYDoCg&usg=AFQjCNGMUxgZ_QCW2DDDhCU-KwPn2kLLMA&sig2=-0f4JAnAqp9iHRRNrmE8Hw&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw), and [Nick Price](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=4&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CEAQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pgatour.com%2Fplayers%2Fplayer.01968.nick-price.html&ei=xOjcVMzBBNDhsAS57IGICA&usg=AFQjCNGC9gbom289x3tE4HXrYjUJlRCT3g&sig2=hoCS6C7Mxnj68IokJkavoA&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw) – each achieved a hole in one on the 6th hole. The odds against four pros achieving this? 1 in 332,000. Talk about raw talent.

1. **Snake Eyes**
We already mentioned how having two holes in a round of golf is nearly impossible – even for a pro. But what about the casual golfer, like [Kassandra Komma](http://www.pga.com/news/golf-buzz/oakland-u-golfer-snags-two-aces-two-straight-par-3s)? This Oakland University student did just two that – recording two ones on her scorecard in nine holes, at a whopping one to 67 million.
Image found [here](https://uproxx.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/kassandra-komma.jpg).
1. **One after Another**
Matt Parker and Travis Ferrante each hit a hole-in-one on the fourth hole of the [Portland Country Club](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&sqi=2&ved=0CB0QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.portlandcountryclub.org%2F&ei=POncVKWTF82VyATYmYDwAQ&usg=AFQjCNGsaoOna-TQ8E54MPUEUHXBNSSsCg&sig2=8gOzZYkghiEHEBpsN-MTcA&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw) in Maine, one after another. A third member of their party hit his ball within a foot in the same roles – nearly making it lucky number three. Even if he fell short – the odds of two people in the same foursome each hitting a hold in one are [17 million to 1](http://nationalholeinoneregistry.com/).
Image found [here](http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2176819/Pair-golfers-Portland-Maine-hit-hole-ones-hole-defying-odds-17million-one.html).
1. **Third, Fourth, and Fifth Time is the Charm**
A lot of the time, we set our sights on having one ace to our name. [Dom Debonis](https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=7&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CDUQFjAG&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pga.com%2Fnews%2Fgolf-buzz%2Fthree-consecutive-rounds-ace-81-year-old-dom-debonis-just-did-it&ei=VuncVLL0K_e_sQSpr4H4Ag&usg=AFQjCNFDW7qiNDRSjADvdue9HSQ4EkOo9w&sig2=VV9zmhY8zZRPmLe0Tjd3LQ&bvm=bv.85761416,d.aWw), an 81 year old Pennsylvania native, has 5. Not only that, he got three of them within the span of three days, with the odds of that being absolutely astronomical. Maybe he’s the reason I haven’t gotten any yet he’s hogging them all.

For those of you who don’t recall Zokol, he played off and on in the PGA Tour from 1982 through to 2003.
