Tiger Woods saw an 11-year-old hit a hole-in-one with the inaugural tee shot and go on to beat him at the new par-three golf course Woods helped design in Texas.
Taylor Crozier’s tee shot spun right to find the hole on the 81-yard opener at The Playgrounds, near Houston, and Woods embraced the young golfer as the watching crowd went wild.
That shot helped Crozier and his playing partner Ceci Lococo record rounds of 32 on the 10-hole course while 14-time major winner Woods could only manage a 35, giving the youngsters a signed scorecard to treasure.
Former world number one Woods, who has been off the PGA Tour with ongoing back issues, tweeted a video of Crozier’s shot, saying: “First hole at The Playgrounds, and this happened.”
