It’s golf’s holy grail—the hole-in-one. The rarest of feats every golfer dreams about, and the one shot that everyone, even non-golfers, talks about. A hole-in-one grants you a special status in golf, making your regular playing partners envious, even if they're better players. It brings a touch of immortality if your name is posted on the club’s wall. Prizes might come your way, especially if you made your ace in a shootout contest.
