Eun-Hee Ji delivered one of the great holes-in-one in LPGA history Sunday at the Kia Classic.

Shortly after Cristie Kerr birdied to move with a shot of Ji’s lead at Aviara Golf Club, Ji answered as emphatically as a player can.

With a 7-iron in hand, Ji stepped to the 14th tee and aced the hole from 166 yards.

Ji walked away with two Kia automobiles at day’s end, both Sorentos.

“Oh really?” Ji said. “I didn’t know.”

She knew she won a Kia car for making the hole in one, and she didn’t know she won another to go with her $270,000 first-place check.
