Mimi Rhodes, you wizard. Tip your cap.
On Sunday, whether it was designed or not, the young Ladies European Tour golfer masterfully played the par-3, 214-yard Hole 3 during the 2025 AIG Women’s British Open at Royal Porthcawl in Porthcawl, Wales, for a hole-in-one.
Rhodes’ ace, however, didn’t come without some help, as it ricocheted off Stephanie Kyriacou’s ball that was placed inches away from the hole to bounce in.
