Who has had a hole-in-one at the US Women’s Open?

It’s a rare achievement in golf – a major championship hole-in-one – but who has been lucky enough to get one at the US Women’s Open?

In total, there have been 32 hole-in-ones in the history of the longest-running women’s major golf tournament, with only three of those coming in the first 25 years of competition.

Amateur Martha Cowden was the first to achieve a hole-in-one in the tournament’s history. She achieved the feat on the 4th hole at Druids Hills in 1951. Since then, there have been aces at courses around the United States.

Two players have been lucky enough to have a pair of hole-in-ones at the US Women’s Open. Nancy Porter did so at Winged Foot in 1972 and Rolling Green in 1976. Lee Lopez got hers in back-to-back years – firstly at Lancaster in 2015, before doubling up at CordeValle in 2016.

Jennifer Kupcho had hit the most recent hole-in-one, with that coming at the 2021 US Women’s Open at The Olympic Club. However, on the opening day of the 2024 competition, Sophia Popov made an ace at the par 3 8th hole, the 32nd ace in US Women’s Open history.

There have been three hole-in-ones in a single US Women’s Open on three occasions – Cedar Ridge in 1983, Blackwolf Run in 1998 and Champions GC in 2020.
