You're 800.0× more likely to hit a hole-in-one

than to become US president

How we calculated this

Each figure is “1 in X.” The larger X is the rarer event. Dividing that number by the more common one gives the multiplier: you're 800.0× more likely to hit a hole-in-one. When the periods differ, this is a raw ratio of those figures, not a lifetime-normalized risk.
