They were debating this on Get Up this morning. Personally I’m torn between:

1. Hitting a hole in one.
2. Hitting for the cycle in Baseball.

What do you think it is?

Definitely not the hardest because there is a ton of luck involved and amateurs do it every day.

ETA:

I had a hole in one when I was 12 years old 9 iron, 121 yards, par 3, #3 at BRCC.

But haven't had one since, despite being a much better golfer.

Meh. It's difficult but not the hardest feat to accomplish. There were 7 cycles in MLB last year.

Going 20-20 with 20 home runs in one game is pretty hard

My point is it depends what we define as achievable, there are literally impossible feats.

According to Wikipedia (i know...), there have been 319 cycles in MLB history.

According to the National Hole in One registry, over 128,000 holes-in-one are recorded each year.

Neither of these are remotely in the realm of being the hardest feats to accomplish in sports.

And approximately 120,000 of those had no witnesses

I could go to a course everyday and play nothing but par 3’s and eventually get lucky enough


No matter how much I trained and if I tried every day, I would never be able to dunk

It’s better than I thought it would be. I still prefer GMFB, but unfortunately NFL is in the off-season.

In how many AB's 7 sounds like a lot till you realize every game has around 90 total AB's....

Yeah pitching an immaculate inning is way more rare than a cycle or even no hitter
