Ace at The Lakes Country Club

The Goalby Invitational, held March 30, 2026, at The Lakes Country Club, delivered an unforgettable moment for golfer Allan Munguia.

What began as just another round quickly turned into the shot of a lifetime. Standing on the ninth tee, Allan selected his No. 4 hybrid, took aim, and struck the ball perfectly. The shot flew straight down the fairway, landed in the center of the green, and rolled directly into the cup for a spectacular hole-in-one.

This wasn't just any ace—it earned Allan the tournament's grand prize. Having previously played in the Goalby Invitational once before, his second appearance proved to be the lucky one.

The Goalby Invitational is an annual multi-day event held at The Lakes Country Club in Palm Desert, California. The tournament brings golfers together for friendly competition while also featuring hole-in-one contests, banquets, and awards dinners that celebrate participants and the spirit of the game.
