And I just looked it up, yes, for some reason it IS also called an albatross.

Only a non golfing Googlerite would attempt to make a correction here that a Double Eagle is an "Albatross". I've never heard it and it's never been used on any PGA tournament coverage since it is such a ridiculous term.

They might as well call a shot into a water hazard a "Turtle shot" or a "Fish Splash".............

You heard it here first.........LOL!
