Twenty years ago, Doug Weaver, a Hilton Head Island resident, made history at the 1989 U.S. Open, becoming one of four golfers known as the “Four Aces.”

Weaver finished the tournament in a tie for 69th and only pocketed a meager $4,099, but he became part of US Open history that day when he made a hole-in-one on the 167-yard sixth hole.

After Weaver’s shot, Mark Wiebe, Jerry Pate and Nick Price all defied the odds by also acing the same sixth hole. The four men quickly became known as the “Four Aces.”

Weaver says the subject comes up every now and then, but he gets asked about it more often this week.

A New York Times article recently claimed the odds of this happening again were 2,355,683 to 1!
