NEW YORK — Frank Bensel Jr., a teaching golf professional in New York and Florida, made aces on back-to-back holes at the US Senior Open on Friday at Newport Country Club.In the second round at the Rhode Island layout, 56-year-old Bensel struck holes-in-one at the par-3 fourth and fifth holes.The National Hole-in-One Registry calculates the odds of hitting two aces in the same round as 67 million to one — much less doing it on consecutive holes, with back-to-back par-3s seldom seen on their own.
'I'm out here trying to play well and make the cut, and at the time, it was pretty important for me to do that.'No US PGA Tour player has had two aces in the same round since American Brian Harman at the 2015 Barclays.Bensel made seven bogeys over his final 12 holes and fired a four-over-par 74 for the second round to stand on nine-over 149 and a likely missed cut.
