= have a hole in one


Explanation:
Here's an English explanation.

Having a "hole in one" in golf, i.e. hitting the ball into the hole in only one shot (sometimes from a distance of up to 220-230 yards), can be an expensive business because tradition has it that you have to buy a drink for everyone in the clubhouse afterwards.

This sounds like an insurance policy to cover such an event.
