TWO amateur golfers produced a 17 MILLION-TO-ONE feat by producing back-to-back hole in ones.

Steve Wilmhurst, 58, and Liam Nairn, 70, were playing as part of a foursome at the Studley Wood Golf Club in Oxfordshire on Monday.

And it was on the 16th hole, a 167-yard par-three, where the miraculous feat took place.

Nairn stepped up to nail his tee shot – claiming a first ever hole in one.

Speaking to the BBC, he said: “I was absolutely elated because it was such a rare thing for that kind of thing to happen to me, so I was over the moon.

“I said to myself: ‘I’ve got a hole in one — unbelievable’.

“We were all jumping for joy and getting high fives, so [it was] a really, really happy occasion.”

Then it was the turn of Wilmhurst, who had managed a hole in one two decades ago.

Astonishingly, he replicated Nairn to make it back-to-back hole in ones for the amateur pals.

Yet it was not until they made it to the hole that they realised Wilmhurst had sunk his shot.

Wilmhurst said: “We all watched Liam’s ball go on to the green, then up in the hole.

“It hit the pin on the way in, so we heard the ball go in as well, and then about 30 seconds later I took my shot and it disappeared, so I walked down to the green thinking ‘I’ve missed’ and had put it in the bunker.

“When Liam went to get his ball out of the hole, I didn’t believe him when he said: ‘Oh, yours is in here as well.’ I thought he was joking. I had to check it wasn’t April 1.”

The National Hole-In-One Registry quote the odds of two players achieving hole in ones on the same hole as 17 million to one.

It is 12,000 to one for a single player to manage a hole in one.

Wilmhurst and Nairn bought drinks for all those in the clubhouse following their incredible accomplishment.

They also signed the club’s “hole in one” book.

Wilmhurst added: “To be fair we do play three or four times a week so the odds decrease with the amount we’ve played,” Mr Wilmshurst joked.

“But it’s a wonderful thing. It doesn’t happen very often.”
