What makes a miserable round memorable? Wining a Porsche.
Jodi Ewart Shadoff was 8 over par through 13 holes in Round 1 of the Amundi Evian Championship.
However, her tee shot on the 155-yard, par-3 16th landed on the right side of the green and perfectly rode the slope into the hole for an ace.

The hole-in-one earned the English player a Porsche Macan Turbo Electric, an SUV EV with a base price of $80,000. Added to her prior birdie at No. 14 and a closing birdie at No. 18 and Ewart Shadoff was able to shoot 4-over 75.
Shadoff’s was the second ace of the round as amateur Chun-Wei Wu made the first at the par-3 fifth (a non-prize hole).
