Whether it’s called a double eagle or an albatross, a score of 3-under par on a golf hole is close to the game’s Holy Grail, something few golfers ever come close to achieving.
That was true of 27-year-old Danny Syring of Tampa, Fla., at least until last Sunday. That’s when Syring did the unimaginable, making two double eagles in the same round at the Nicklaus Tournament Course at PGA West in La Quinta.
“If it hadn’t happened to me, I wouldn’t believe it,” Syring said.
