by The last round of the Women’s Open to Royal Portthcawl delivered one of the most extraordinary moments in modern major history after the English Golfer Mimi Rhodes produced a hole in one that was a remarkable resemblance to a booming snooker shot.
Australia Steph Kyriacou had already struck its shot a few centimeters from the hole in the 5th penis of 184 yards when Rhodes rose on the TEE. The 23 -year -old iron shot has rebounded from the green to the hole. The ball duly kissed that of Kyriacou and in the bottom of the cup for an ace.

“Did it come in?!” asked for an amazed Rhodes. The episode was even more remarkable because Kyriacou had already made a hole in one in Porthcawl, in the 8th in the second round. It was the second ace of the Rhodes season. We do not know what she will thank Kyriacou for the help.
The incredible moment mentioned the memories of Louis Oosthizen and the Masters of 2016, where the South African made a hole in one in the 16th in a similar style. The Ballon d’Oosthizen was diverted to the hole via that of JB Holmes.
Rhodes and Kyriacou later revealed that they had no idea of the exact event chain at the time. “I hit a very good eight iron, where I wanted,” said Rhodes. “I did not expect it to enter, so I just took my t-shirt and I heard everyone going crazy, so I knew that something had happened. Then we just walked towards green and it was in the hole. I didn’t know that he hit Steph’s ball until I just saw the video, so it’s amazing.”
Kyriacou therefore avoided a penalty for not having replaced his ball at the original place before typing for two, on the basis, she was not aware. “I somehow pretends it, even if Mimi is probably not going to say it,” she added.
