This Day in Golf--Nov. 29

It seems as if the age progression for the oldest male acer advances every two or three decades. The present record-holder is Gus Andreone, 103, who had a hole-in-one on the 113-yard, 14th hole of the Lakes Course at Palm Aire in Sarasota, Fla., on December 17, 2014. Before him, Otto Bucher, 99, Geneva, Switzerland, aced the 130-yard 12th hole at the La Manga (Spain) Club in January 1985. And prior to him was T.S. South, 91, who had a hole-in-one on this date in 1952 on the 110-yard seventh hole at Highcliffe Castle Golf Club in England.
