'Downright unbelievable': Two golfers hit holes-in-one minutes apart at Payne's Valley

A record was set at Payne's Valley Golf Course earlier this month, as two golfers hit holes-in-one within minutes of each other.

Billye Hollister of Arlington, Virginia hit the first hole-in-one at the course's 19th bonus hole around noon on Thursday, Aug. 18. Only a few minutes later, Susan Stevens of Augusta, Georgia, made the same shot.

The odds of two people making an ace on the same hole on the same day are 1 in 17 million, according to Chris Murphy, KemperLesnik account executive.

Hollister's five-day golf trip to Big Cedar Lodge was his first time in Missouri.
