DP World Tour Player Gets HOLE-IN-ONE on a Par 4!

The Fortinet Threat Score assesses the risk of every hole on Tour and the 16th hole at Marco Simone GC is a classic risk and reward driveable Par 4. Last year, at the DS Automobiles Italian Open, the 16th hole established itself as a true risk and reward Par 4. The data laid bare the stark difference between players who laid up in the fairway and those who successfully drove the green:

The Risk
Average Score to Par of Players who unsuccessfully drove the green, across all four tournament rounds, was 4.00.

The Reward
Average Score to Par of Players who successfully drove the green, across all four tournament rounds, was 2.98. Players made Birdie or better 93% of the time when successfully driving the green

The challenge? A nearest-the-pin competition to beat the best drive at last year’s DS Automobiles Italian Open as Kalle Samooja drove the green with his ball finishing 6ft from the pin.

The result? One of the greatest shots in DP World Tour history…
