There will be thousands and thousands of golf shots taken at the American Express this week, the old Bob Hope event in Palm Springs, which features a three-course rotation with pro-am groups playing 54 holes before a Sunday finale. None of those shots is likely to top what Canadian Laurent Hurtubise pulled off in the first round.

Born without his right arm, Hurtubise is one of the amateurs playing on Troy Merritt’s pro-am team. According to a PGA Tour story, Hurtubise plays in the American Express regularly, using his left-arm only to hit drives that regularly travel 230 yards. On Thursday, Hurtubise pulled off what many golfers around the world dream about: Make a hole-in-one … and he did it during a PGA Tour event.

Watch the shot below from the fourth hole at PGA West’s Stadium Course.

Incredible, incredible stuff.

Merritt, himself a three-time PGA Tour winner, said after: “That was the coolest experience I’ve had on the golf course,” Merritt said.
