What's 4 Under Par Called?

Condor is an unofficial name for a hole score of four strokes fewer than par (four under par, −4). A condor is also known as a double albatross, or a triple eagle. This is the lowest individual hole score ever made, relative to par.

What is a 5 under par called?

What is a score of 5-under-par on a single golf hole called? That's an ostrich. ... Five-under on a par-5 hole, after all, is zero. So in order to score an ostrich, a golfer must be playing a golf hole with a par rating greater than par-5. And, yes, par-6 holes do exist.

What is 4 under par on a par-5 called?

But, technically speaking, a hole-in-one on a par-5 is a score of 4-under par, so it could, in theory, be called a "double albatross" or a "triple eagle." Those just sound goofy, though. So, sticking with the avian theme of golf's scoring terms (birdie, eagle, albatross), a par-5 ace is called a condor.
