At 5, Golfer’s Already An Ace

The player was 5, the hole was 4, the par was 3, he started when he was 2, he got it in 1.

Matthew Draper made headlines Friday when a newspaper revealed that, at age 5, he was the youngest Briton to score a hole-in-one.

The British Broadcasting Corp. reported that the Guinness Book of Records was checking whether that was a world record.

Matthew scored his ace last week at the Cherwell Edge course in Middleton Cheny, central England.

He scored his 120-yard ace on the fourth hole, a par-3, using a 3-wood.

Matthew picked up a club when he was 2, and started practicing. A relative now custom-makes his clubs.
