LPGA player Kang wins two cars with an ace in consecutive tournaments
It's been a good eight days for Danielle Kang. The 22-year-old LPGA player has not only made an ace in back-to-back tournaments, but she's also won a car for each ace she's made.
The second ace came on Friday in the second round of the LPGA Taiwan Championship. Kang used a 7-iron from 158 yards to make an ace at the 17th hole at Miramar C.C. in Taipei. For the effor, Kang won an Audi A6 T2.0.
"I was actually thinking about a hole-in-one, because I've been touching that car," Kang said afterward. "I really wanted the car. It was right to left. So, I wanted to aim a little right of it, but then I caught it OK. It hit the fringe, like the collar, and it just kicked straight in and just rolled, tracked all the way into the hole."
Kang, who turned 22 on Oct. 20, made her first ace in eight days in the opening round of the Blue Bay LPGA tournament in China, again with an ace on the 17th hole. She used an 8-iron at the 155-yard hole at the Jian Lake Blue Bay Golf Course to win a Buick LaCrosse.
Not bad, right?
