"Go in the Hole" has New Meanining on Illinois Golf Course
2013-03-12
When it comes to dealing with this divot, score one for golfer Mark Mihal.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that the mortgage broker from Creve Coeur, Mo., is recovering after a sinkhole opened up beneath him Friday on the 14th hole's fairway of a southwestern Illinois golf course, swallowing him up into a pit 18 feet deep and 10 feet wide.

I dunno, but while those big sinkholes are impressive, I think this one is scarier.
