Elsie McLean, 102, hits a hole in oneCant beat that with a stick.
Elsie McLean took a driver out of her golf bag like she always does on the fourth hole at Bidwell Park Golf Course, where the 102-year-old has golfed for decades.
But this time she aced the 100-yard, par-3 hole.
On Thursday the lifelong resident of Chico, a city about 170-miles north of San Francisco, became the world's oldest golfer ever to shoot a hole-in-one on a regulation course, according to a newspaper report."But McLean did not immediately celebrate after hitting the shot. She thought she had lost her ball. Because of the slope of the green, McLean and her golf partners could not see where her ball landed after she teed off. They searched the grass and green as they approached the hole, and were confused.
"Where's my ball?" McLean asked.
Her friends, Elizabeth Rake and Kathy Crowder, found it in the cup.
"I said, 'Oh, my Lord. It can't be true. It can't be true.' I was so excited. And the girls were absolutely overcome," said McLean. It was McLean's first ace in a long golf career. read more

Centenarian Has A Prayer Answered
This lady sure had an afternoon of a lifetime the other day, especially since she's lived about two of them and has become the worlds oldest golfer to hit an ace and on a fly with one bounce.
