Correction: Greatest 3 of all time?

Got a swift kick in the balls going into work today, after I walked in...my pro, explained to me that I had not made a hole in one, but instead a par, 3. By USGA rules, when I approached the ball the first time, I then was to have marked my both within 10 seconds of approaching the ball. Because I waited more than this "reasonable" amount of time, and my ball eventually dropped in the hole... along with me not then realizing the mistake and replacing my ball where it was before it fell in before holing the ball... I was assessed a two stroke penalty, equating in a par 3. Sooooo quite the change of events....Although probably not technically a hole in one, In my book of life, titled, "The Life of Carson Solien", I stroke a golf ball once, and it ended up in the bottom of the hole. Hole in One? Funny fact..... That "This could ALMOST be a perfect day, enjoy it" fortune cookie, somehow turned out to be even more ironic! fucking A... And really wish I had waiting until after work today, to write that post about "The greatest hole in one ever made", I thought about taking it down and saving myself the embarrassment...but decided to let the story live on into eternity. I'm ready to finish this lovely day. Pretty sure I would have had a swift kick in the balls literally. Goodnight!

18-2b/10 Ball Falls into Hole After Being Addressed
Q. A player’s ball overhangs the lip of the hole. He addresses the ball and it falls into the hole. What is the ruling?

A. The ball is not holed. The player incurs a penalty stroke and the ball must be replaced. Although Rule 16-2 applies when a player’s ball overhangs the lip of the hole, Rule 18-2b, which specifically applies when a player’s ball moves after he has addressed it, overrides Rule 16-2 in this case.
