Robert Allenby's Hole In One
Who said the PGA Tour without Tiger Woods would be boring? Whoever said that was oh so wrong. These guys can seriously play. The last event that they played was at the revered Doral Blue Course which is infamously dubbed as the “BLUE MONSTER.” It truly is a challenging course with a lot of intricacies.
Firstly, Florida courses have Bermuda grass, which can be tough to negotiate. Chipping from it is not easy at all and reading Bermuda greens is an acquired skill. Take it from us at Foresite Sports when we say that bent grass is a lot easier to putt from. On top of this the Blue Course at Doral can get very windy. If you thought it ended there you’re wrong. There is a lot of water! What’s even more intimidating is that on the holes with water the greens are angled towards the water and the water definitely comes into play off the tee.
Anyways, Foresite Sports would like to congratulate Robert Allenby who holed out on the 13th hole. This is a tough par three that is over 220 yards and unfortunately plays right into the teeth of the wind. Most pros are satisfied with just hitting the green here. That’s if they can get it there! What’s even more surprising is that in the history of all the pro events played at the BLUE MONSTER there has never been a ace on this hole. Robert Allenby corrected this with an unforgettable golf shot. He didn’t end up winning the tournament but this was a highlight of the event. Making a birdie on that hole isn’t common, let alone an ace. Great shot!
Holes in one should be rewarded and Foresite Sports makes this happen. We make it possible for tournament directors to give away grand prizes at their events. To find out more check us out online or call us directly at 888 882 5440. We can’t wait to hear from you.
