Rory McIlroy & Justin Thomas try to make a hole-in-one with 50 balls
Спорт
European Tour Originals presents the Chase The Ace 50/50 Hole-In-One Challenge, starring Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas.
The odds suggest a Tour pro's chances of making a hole-in-one are roughly one in 2,500.
In four previous episodes, we’ve given players 500 balls and an entire day to try to make an ace. However, to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of the United Arab Emirates, this time we gave two of the world’s best players just 50 attempts each…
Could they defy the odds to find that one perfect shot? A 148-yard par three at Abu Dhabi Golf Club awaits. Here’s what happened…

Can we talk about the fact that JT stuck one inside a foot, immediately dropped another ball, and managed to get closer? Perfect example of why these guys are pros!

@@ultrabluesea9182 And you also have to remember "bad" in their sense is a good shot for the majority of us. Especially in a situation like this where they deem everything outside a gimme as a "poor" shot. There's no way an amateur would be able to do what JT did to stick it within a couple of CM back to back.

Love these hole in one with 50 shots videos. It really exposes the almost unreasonable confidence pros have. They expect to make it and the ultra competitive nature pulls out the frustration as well.

It's interesting how they seem to attribute their lack of success to something lacking in their own skill rather than it simply being a rare event (1 in 2,500) that will be difficult to achieve. The frustration seems to set in very early considering they've only hit 50 balls.

@@hughgurney8686 well that's exactly how the brain works. If you set too difficult a goal it will become very frustrating which is why it's wise to take small steps. These are however pros and they have about the best chances to make this happen given 50 shots, but the exact same thing happens to them - they hit a lot of amazing shots they'd love to do in a tournament, but here they don't get that endorphin response because even though they were amazing, they were also failures at their goal.

Rory at 6:03 to 6:19 just described the ethos of golf perfectly lol
Would love to see either of these guys do the 500 shot. We need more of those. Just superb viewing every time.
The production level of this video was A++. More please.
Justin is my spirit golfer the way he talks. When told it was 2 inches away, just pure sarcasm as a reply. Then "I just wanna throw my club so bad" 🤣
What a great vid, really enjoyed it and its great to see Justin and Rory enjoying themselves! Just for the record, I've had one hole-in-one, 158yd uphill par 3. Horrible contact, lost it with the sun in my eyes...looked everywhere else then thought "I'll just check the hole" - it was in there!!! I was playing on my own and not one of my golf buddies will ever believe me. But I know... ball is on a plinth in my room 😅👍
Very entertaining, thank you for that ET!
These are always great! Keep them coming!
I absolutely love this challenge. Keep on doing this please.
The fact that these guys actually mean to hit the ball like they do and it does this is just ART. I just hope I hit it forwards 😅

Yeah I've only seen the teasers yet but I think it's gonna be another great video
I'm approx a 12 handicap but had one freak round in 2005 where I had birdie, tap-in eagle, bogey, birdie, birdie, and 🕳hole-in-one (200yd 5 iron cut) in a 6 hole stretch. The bogey was a 3 putt from 8 feet😱. Never even came close to that day again. Was a gift from above.😁
we need more of these videos they are good watches
Awesome video ... JT is hilarious
The sad/inspirational music toward the end absolutely slayed me. 😂😂
We love you guys!!!
This was actually very fun to look at!!
With all the skill in the world, it still doesn't happen. Well done guys, love these hole in one videos.
Very cool. Great video!
The Euro tour has the best media. They always put out such quality videos
Starts of with a powerful positive statement " only get 1 first shot to get a hole in one" then goes to self-hatred "Not even close... I'm yelling at a ball that's 20ft short." - Golf is the biggest rollercoaster ride of mental frustration and strength. Prove me wrong.
man, these guys are so good.
That was fantastic. I can breath again now
These guys are so funny in these competitions. Like the one with Rory and the robot swinging into washing machines 🤣
awesome video! my two favorite golfers
2 of the best swings on tour!
When he said, “I wanna throw my club so bad.” I felt that on a personal level

Rory said he hasn't made a hole in one in six years. That's wrong. I personally witnessed him make a hole in one five years ago. It was in a practice round for the 2016 Masters. Hole 16 at Augusta and I was in the bleachers. The pin was cut in the front middle of the green. Rory hit it about 10 feet past the hole and used the slope to bring it back down. As the ball began to trickle down and got closer and closer the murmers of the crowd grew and grew. Thinking about being smack in the middle of those roars when that ball dropped still gives me chills to this day.
