    With two swings, Brendon Todd made Nationwide Tour history.

    After posting a hole-in-one on the 147-yard 17th hole at the Athens Regional Foundation Classic on Thursday, Todd repeated the feat in Friday's second round, as well.

    "It's just pure disbelief," Todd said. "It was a stroke of good luck, twice in a row. I guess it's like catching lightning in a bottle."

    Lightning which struck twice, of course. In the opening round, Todd used a 7-iron when the hole was playing 10 yards longer than its distance on the scorecard.

    "That one landed about 3 feet short," he recalled, "and rolled straight up the hill like a putt."

    On Friday, he used an 8-iron, which brought the same end result

    I made a hole in one way back in the early 60's. This is an amazing feat since it happened on the same hole on consecutive days.

    What's the big deal? I can drop a ball in 1 or 2 strokes anytime I want. :D
    Just have to watch out for soft drink lids, that's all.
