‘If only I could get that lucky’ – Tommy Fleetwood hits incredible hole-in-one on a par 4… but it doesn’t count
TOMMY FLEETWOOD hit an incredible hole-in-one on a par four but was left wondering if it counted.
The current world No.10 is competing in the TMRW Golf League that has been set up by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.
Fleetwood, 34, hit a brilliant shot on the driving simulator that saw the ball take a fortunate bounce off computer-generated rocks.
The ball landed on the green on the par four and miraculously rolled into the hole.
Fleetwood celebrated the shot and took to social media to ask about its legitimacy.
He wrote: “Add this to the hole-in-one debate.
“Golf simulator ace during practice. Does this count?”
Unfortunately for the Southport ace, it would not count as it only came during the warm-up and practice.
Fans were stunned by the shot as they debated the effort on social media.
One posted: “If only I could get that lucky of a bounce sim or no sim lol. Great shot!.”

A second wrote: “Sorry, even simulator holes in one don’t count.”
A third commented: “In real life, that would ricochet off the rock like 40 yards, lmao.”
A fourth said: “No buts it’s cool.”
Another added: “My definition has always been one on the scorecard, but I would bring this up every time someone asked me how many do I have.”
Fleetwood was able to console himself as he did pull off a brilliant shot later in the competition.
He chipped in from a good distance that was hailed as a “bit of magic”.
