North Korean leader defies all the odds to card 11 holes in one

BILLY BRIGGS August 03 2005

IT was a claim that would have made even Tiger Woods blush. Kim Jong-il, the leader of North Korea, has casually suggested that, during the first round of golf he ever played, he notched up a mere 11 holes in one.

Assuming he is telling the whole truth, and the course was more than a municipal putting green in central Pyongyang, the leader of the world's most secretive state defied astronomical odds to card his 11 aces.

It is estimated to be a one in 14 million chance to have two during a round of 18 holes, the same odds as winning the UK National Lottery. Achieving nine more would add quite a few more zeros.

Still, Kim's proclaimed prowess is not confined to the golf course. According to the North Korean website article published yesterday which featured his aces, he also pilots jet fighters, writes operas, and produces films in his spare time.

I knew he starred in a movie, but I didn't realize he was a producer as well.

SirFozzie · 08-03-2005, 10:03 AM

yes, he produced a rip-off godzilla movie too (actually had a producer kidnapped for two-three years). I will try to see if I can find the review. It was bizarre.

Damn. He must be pretty good.

That's nothing - I heard Al Gore invented the "hole-in-one."

Ty, I saw Judge Smales before. He was cheating.

Danny, nobody likes a tattletale...except of course me.

Chubby · 08-03-2005, 12:11 PM

Maybe he can solve North Korea's cashflow problems by joining the PGA tour...
