A Sidney golfer defied all odds and managed to score not just one hole-in-one, but two back-to-back holes-in-one at a Saanich golf course.

While playing at Ridge Golf Course with his eight-year-old son, longtime golfer Jordan Rintoul scored two aces in a row on Saturday, March 30.

含羞草研究社淚t含羞草研究社檚 a pretty surreal feeling like, you know, I含羞草研究社檝e had two other old ones in my golfing career and both of them came in competitive golf situations,含羞草研究社 said Rintoul. 含羞草研究社淭here was an elderly couple playing behind us and the woman, she saw both of them and I think she was more excited than I was. It was pretty crazy.含羞草研究社

After paring the first four holes of the nine-hole course, he managed to ace the 70-yard fifth hole, and when he stepped up to the sixth hole, which is 89 yards, he repeated the feat. Both holes are par three.

According to the National Hole-In-One Registry, making consecutive holes-in-one is a one in 67 million occurrence.

A funny thing he said was because a woman behind me said 含羞草研究社業含羞草研究社檓 gonna give you my email address because I don含羞草研究社檛 think many people are gonna believe this actually happened. I含羞草研究社檒l attest to it and this and that.含羞草研究社 And then I said, 含羞草研究社楴o, no, it含羞草研究社檚 fine. I含羞草研究社檝e got my son here with me含羞草研究社 and my son piped up and he said, 含羞草研究社榥o, I含羞草研究社檓 gonna tell everybody that it just didn含羞草研究社檛 happen含羞草研究社 and that was kind of icing on the cake,含羞草研究社 he said
