It’s amazing what a difference a day can make.
On Friday, Tiffany Joh shanked a 7-iron on the par-3 fourth. On Saturday, she ripped a perfect 5-iron and made an ace on the very same hole.
It propelled her to a flawless 8-under, 64.
“Honestly, it was just a really solid 5-iron,” said Joh. “I have awful sight, but I saw it disappear.”
Since Joh was playing with one of her best friends, Jane Park, the celebration was epic.
“I think first I ran and tackled Jane and then I high-fived like every single person walking onto the green.”
It was her eighth career hole-in-one.
It might be an expensive Saturday night for Joh as tradition requires the person that made the ace to buy adult beverages for her friends.
“This is the worst holiday to be making a hole in one,” joked Joh about St. Patrick’s Day. “You’ll go broke buying everyone green beers.”
Instead, it sounds like a trip to In-N-Out is in store to celebrate the hole-in-one.
Joh moved from a tie for 39th into the top 10.
