PGA Tour history -- 2 aces in same round

Japan's Yusaka Miyazato
plans to 'drink much beer'


WINDERMERE -- For those of us who have played golf for most of our lives, making a hole-in-one remains the biggest thrill imaginable. (I'm still hoping after 39 years ...)

For Yusaka Miyazato, it's no big deal.

Miyazato, playing in the Reno-Tahoe Open on a sponsor's exemption, made two aces in a round of 6-under-par 66 Friday. Tour officials claim he is the first player ever to accomplish the feat. (To read the Associated Press story on SI.com, click here.)

Afterward, Miyazato told the AP that he planned to "drink much beer. Big party."

The 26-year-old is the older brother of LPGA Tour rookie sensation Ai Miyazato.
