Thursday I wrote a blog about Miguel Angel Jimenez's dance he did after he drained a hole-in-one during the 2015 Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.
Friday, Rory McIlroy got his first ever professional hole-in-one on the same hole that Jimenez drained his from. Rory's shot was four yards longer then Jimenez's at 177 yards. He used a nine iron.
I am not a pro golfer by any means but I couldn't even imagine what it would be like to hit a nine iron 177 yards.
Another interesting golf tid-bit comes from Chris Kirk.
I don't know too much about Kirk other then he shot a course record 62 at Hyundai Tournament of Champions on Monday.
Some people may not know this, but yes — the PGA Tour does drug test the professional ranks.
Kirk posted this tweet after he shot his 62.
It appears Kirk passed as he is playing this weekend in the Sony Open.
