GOLFER Denny McCarthy hit an amazing "hole-in-one" after his ball bounced off a fan and into a chair cup holder.
On the par-four second, McCarthy's tee shot went well off target and hit a spectator sitting down.
Sensationally, the ball then landed in the fan's cup holder and commentators and McCarthy himself joked it was a hole-in-one.
McCarthy said: "Long-range hole-in-one. That's a hole-in-one."
Fans online could not believe the shot and were quick to reference Adam Sandler's 1996 comedy classic Happy Gilmore.
One said: "Miracle."

Another added: "They made Shooter McGavin play it of Frankensteins fat foot. I say play it as it lies."
One commented: "INCREDIBLE."
Another said: "Ah, just give him the hole in one, and be done with it."
Despite the unlucky lie, McCarthy even managed to make birdie.
