B次元官网网址淚 used my 5-iron and the ball just bounced into the hole and disappeared. My two sisters and I just looked at each other and we just burst out laughing. That was unreal. It didnB次元官网网址檛 feel like it actually happened until we got up there and pulled out the ball out the hole.B次元官网网址

It was JoyB次元官网网址檚 first hole-in-one, and she was pleased to make it a family feat.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 a father-and-daughter hole-in-one,B次元官网网址 said McWhirter, who has been golfing for 35 years. B次元官网网址淚 still canB次元官网网址檛 believe it. Not everybody hits a hole-in-one. You can golf all your life and not get one. But we have two in the family.B次元官网网址
