The odds of hitting back-to-back holes-in-one, according to Austin Danforth of the Burlington Free Press, are one in 144 million.
Amateur golfers Rob Gaboriault and Bob Maritano scoffed at those long-shot odds during a casual round at the Links at Lang Farm in Essex Junction, Vermont, Tuesday afternoon. Gaboriault went first, drilling his hole-in-one of the 156-yard, par-3 10th hole—the first of his career. Maritano joined him with his 18th career hole-in-one.
"I was in a daze. To have one hole-in-one, even if it was Bob's or mine, is something that's pretty unbelievable," Gaboriault told Danforth.
