Loudons' Holes In One 2019
By Alison L On 9 September 2019
I am a member of Edinburgh based Murrayfield Golf Club and was playing in neighbouring Ravelston Golf Club's Open Greensomes on the 9th July 2019 when I achieved my Hole-In-One on Hole 14th 119 yards. It is a blind hole so unfortunately I did not see it go in, but the group in front stopped to give us the good news. At the time I thought they were waiting to inform us either that the competition was being abandoned due to weather or point out where my ball had rolled into the rough. What has made this it more unusual was my husband also had his first hole in one this year on 5th March 2019 at Los Naranjos Golf Club in Marbella. Both of us were playing with Titleist Velocity Balls. I love my Pink Titleist Velocity and normally play with them, but my husband had found his on the course! Not surprisingly he now loves them too, but white not pink ones! I had a local craftsman Tom Cooper make a stand for my husband's ball so of course he had to reciprocate and I am sure you will agree the two stands do display our Titleist Velocity balls beautifully. Tom is a creative designer of bespoke furniture so this has been very unusual requests and we believe wonderfully executed.
