The expression "a hole in one" came from, on a golf course, when someone would take only one shot to get it into the hole.
In the 1967 Tony Jacklin had a hole in one, live on BBC's Grandstand. The first hole in one on live british television.
First Recorded - The earliest recorded hole-in-one was in 1869 at the Open Championship when Tom Morris (Young Tom) did the 8th hole (166 yards) Prestwick in one stroke. This was the second of four Open Championships won successively by Young Tom. Source: http://www.opengolf.com/ChampionshipGolf/TheOpenChampionship/History/PreviousOpens.aspx?eventid=1869000
