There are many professional golfers that have made a hole in one in their career. One of the more popular professional golfer is Tiger Woods. They have either done it in a professional tournament or in a casual game.
There is a wide range, from several thousand to several million dollars annually.
Hundreds of golfers have had hole in ones on par fours believe it or not. But there has only been one in Professional competition, this was achieved in the 2001 FBR Open at TPC Scottsdale.Andrew Magee hit his tee shot on the Par 4 17th whilst the group in front were still on the green. One of the players on the green turned and walked away, as he did so, Magee's ball hit his putter and was deflected into the hole, as one of the caddies picked up the flag.
In match play, two players (or two teams) play each hole as a separate contest against each other. The party with the lower score wins that hole, or if the scores of both players or teams are equal the hole is "halved" (drawn). The game is won by the party that wins more holes than the other. In stroke play the score achieved for each and every hole of the round or tournament is added to produce the total score, and the player with the lowest score wins (Stroke play is the game most usually played by professional golfers). In a skins game, golfers compete on each hole, as a separate contest. Played for prize money on the professional level or as a means of a wager for amateurs, a skin, or the prize money assigned to each hole, carries over to subsequent holes if the hole is tied.

from the about.com web site (http://golf.about.com/b/2008/01/12/new-cut-rule-victimizes-18-golfers-at-sony-open.htm) brent kelley explains it this way... So here's how the new cut rule works: * Low-70 plus ties is still the cutline. If 78 or fewer golfers make the cut, then everything continues as in the past. * However, if 79 or more golfers make the cut, the PGA Tour eliminates additional golfers by going one stroke back from the cutline. If the cutline is 4-over and 83 golfers make the cut, the Tour goes back to 3-over, eliminating golfers at that score. * Those golfers who are eliminated in this extra step are credited with making the cut, but do not continue to the weekend rounds. Since they are credited with a made cut, however, they do get their share of the purse and FedEx Cup points. But there is an exception: If the second reduction takes place and results in a field that is farther away from 70 than the full number of golfers who made the cut, the original number stands. For example, 80 golfers make the cut based on the low-70s plus ties formula. The Tour eliminates all the players one stroke below the cutline, which results in 59 golfers remaining. Fifty-nine is farther from 70 than 80 is, so the original 80 continue to the weekend.
A career could be professional coach for a specific event. Another could be an official. You could also make a living by being a runner. There is also the option of being a physician.
The great majority of professional golfers (at least 95%) make their living from teaching the game, running golf clubs and courses, and dealing in golf equipment. In American English the term golf pro refers to individuals involved in the service of other golfers.
