Golf News: Aaron Hicks gets a hole-in-one… on a Par 4!

Aaron Hicks is known by most as being an outfielder for the New York Yankees. Baseball isn’t the only sport that he enjoys playing though, as he has made it known that he enjoys getting out and golfing as well.

Not too long ago, we saw the video of him circulating around showing him hitting a moonshot at Top Golf, where he cleared the netting. According to the video, he had a carry of 330-yards. It can be hard to tell in some of these if they are lucky, or if the player is actually good. Baseball players are notorious for being able to hit bombs on the diamond and the course, so which was it with Aaron Hicks.

Turns out, Aaron Hicks is long and accurate on the golf course too.

In a round that he recently played at Silverleaf Gold Club with none other than the niece of Tiger Woods, Cheyenne Woods shared a video of an incredible accomplishment by Aaron Hicks, this video courtesy of Talking Yanks.

A hole-in-one. On a par-4. With a three wood no less. What an incredible accomplishment.

I guess when we saw the video of Hicks hitting a bomb at Top Golf, it wasn’t just him trying to destroy a ball to see what happens. He can actually hit it long and keep it straight. As you can see in the video, this wasn’t a rinky-dink par-4, one of the ones that sit around 250 yards that almost anyone can reach.

This hole was just over 300 yards, checking in at a reported 303 yards (at least from what I saw). There are a lot of golfers that can’t hit it that far with their driver. Hicks was able to do it with his 3-wood.

First, there was the condor that came out last week when a golfer shot a two on a par-6. Now, Hicks joins the list of golfers out there who have accomplished something crazy by getting a hole-in-one on a par 4. Congratulations!
