73-Year-Old Cancer Survivor Hits Two-Holes-in-One in Same Round

Not only can Erroll Cook, 73, boast that he beat cancer, but he can also boast of doing something very few golfers have ever seen, let alone accomplish: hitting two holes-in-one on the same nine holes.

“It happened last weekend when Cook was playing with friends on the manicured Donald Ross Course in West Caldwell. The first shot was on the 14th hole, a straight 150-yard Par 3 that looked good leaving the tee but rolled out of sight after landing on the green,” CBS New York reports.

“Cook, his partners, and the caddy all searched the area without luck until they found his ball where they least expected: in the cup. He’d aced it,” the report adds.

About a half hour later, Cook jokingly asked what the odds were of hitting another hole-in-one (about 1-in-67 million). Everyone had a good laugh but then, according to eyewitness accounts, Cook did it again.
