Hanks Massey and Davis Massey: Beating the Odds
A math professor has calculated that the odds of two players having a hole in hole on the same hole is about seventeen million to one. Those odds may increase significantly if the two golfers are pre-teens - and brothers. Hanks Massey made the first ace and then it was his brother’s turn:
“…His answer: knock the ball into the hole on top of big brother. As a result, the Massey boys beat odds only a bit less than scoring all six numbers of the Florida Lottery as they made back-to-back aces during a casual round with their father, PGA Tour marketing vice president Scott Massey.”

Kudos to Hanks and Davis. It might have been an good evening to stop and buy a couple of tickets to the Florida Lottery.
