He definitely meant it. Great course management.

We've seen plenty of hole-in-ones in our time (haven't had any ourselves, mind), but we've never seen one as crazy as this. Australian golfer Richard Green was playing in the pro-am at the Victorian Open today, and when he noticed that the tee was brought forward on the short par four 15th, he decided to have a pop. Green's drive was a little wayward, but took a mighty hop off the fairway, before careering in the direction of a greenside bunker. We can't see into the bunker, but we can only assume that the small gremlins living in the sand trap decided to throw Green's ball back out onto the green, before watching it roll perfectly into the bottom of the cup, landing him one of the daftest hole in ones we've ever seen. They call that the "member's bounce" (although he probably isn't actually a member). Incredible.
