European Tour pros cashing in on 86-yard hole
One of the par-3s at this week’s Made in Denmark on the European Tour measures a measly 86 yards, and the players are taking full advantage.
Himmerland Hill Golf & Spa Resort’s famous short 16th hole didn’t disappoint on Thursday, as the European Tour pros made the most of the generous tee and pin position.
While some consider a 86-yard hole as far too short for players of this caliber, there’s no denying it makes for some fireworks.
On the opening day in Denmark, both Zander Lombard and Edoardo Molinari made holes-in-one.

The hole was averaging well under par midway through the first round, and there’s probably a lot more to come.
