Who has the most holes in one on the PGA tour?

Answer 1

Art Wall jr. had 54 holes -in -one in his lifetime............9 holes in one were recorded as an amateur golfer in Pennsylvania and at Duke University......However... he was credited with 45 Holes in One in Professional Tour Events....that included PGA Tour,South American Tour,and the European Tour.......No other PGA or Professional Golfer participating in Major Tours is even close to this record.........Jack Nicklaus has 22 Holes in One and he is second on the All Time List to Art Wall jr.

Ben Hogan who was a close friend of Art Wall jr. stated that he was one of the " Greatest Iron Players " he had ever seen ! Wall used a somewhat unorthodox " Baseball grip" throughout his career . In 1959,he was the No. 1 Golfer in the World

winning The Masters by coming from behind in the last 9 holes to defeat Master's Champion Arnold Palmer and Dr. Cary Middlecoff for the green jacket. During 1959 he managed to win the Vardon Trophy( lowest stroke average for a PGA Professional) and was the leading money winner on the PGA Tour. Health issues and injuries plagued Wall throughout his career but he did win several prestigious PGA Tour events to include the Tournament of Champions and the Bing Crosby's Pebble Beach Tournament. He also was instrumental along with Ben Hogan,Jimmy DeMarrett,Gene Littler,Harvey Pennick...in establishing the Legend's of Golf Tournament in Austin , Texas...which eventually led to the Senior Tour or Champion's Tour. Art Wall passed into Golf Heaven in 2003.
