Javier Colomo hits European Tour’s first ever par-4 hole-in-one

Homegolf

The pressure must be pretty intense when you approach your last hole knowing you need a birdie to make the cut

Which makes Javier Colomo's hole-in-one at the Mauritius Open all the more impressive. The Spaniard pulled out his driver at the par-4 ninth hole at the Heritage Golf Club and sent his ball 330 yards and into the cup for the first ever hole-in-one albatross on the European or Asian Tours. Colomo's spectacular effort comes just a week after England's Danny Willett came within inches of pulling off the feat at the World Match Play Championship in San Francisco. https://twitter.com/JaviColomoGolf/status/596690116292247553 https://twitter.com/asiantourgolf/status/596675324424953856 We're keeping our eyes peeled for video of the shot.
