Two golfers achieved a rare feat on July 10, 2026, by acing the same hole at the Galt Country Club in Cambridge, Ontario. Shawn Brown and Trevor Fackrell both scored holes-in-one on Hole 14, a 150-yard par-3, during separate rounds at the club.
Hole-in-One Double
Brown, a member of the club, recorded his ace in the morning, while Fackrell, a guest, matched the accomplishment in the afternoon. Club officials confirmed that both shots were witnessed and verified according to standard golf rules.
The odds of a golfer making a hole-in-one are approximately 12,500 to 1 for an amateur, according to the National Hole-in-One Registry. The probability of two golfers acing the same hole on the same day is exponentially lower.
Reactions from the Golfers
“I couldn’t believe it when my ball went in,” Brown said. “Then to hear that Trevor did the same thing later that day was just incredible.” Fackrell added, “It’s a memory we’ll both cherish forever.”
The Galt Country Club, established in 1903, is a historic 18-hole course located in Cambridge. The club’s head professional noted that this is the first time in recent memory that two aces have been recorded on the same hole in one day.
Community Celebration
The club plans to commemorate the event with a small ceremony and will add both names to its hole-in-one board. “This is a special moment for our club,” the head professional said. “We’re proud of both Shawn and Trevor.”
