Four-year-old hot shot hits a hole-in-one

A FOUR-YEAR-OLD golfer could be the youngest person in Europe to achieve a hole-in-one.

David Huggins, of Ipswich, holed his tee shot on a par three, 105-yard hole on a course near his home. But Guinness World Records said the youngest person to record a hole in one was an American who was three days younger when he achieved the feat on a course in Hickory, North Carolina, in 1999.

David’s father, Jonathan, 33, said the youngster holed in one on Good Friday while playing the sixth at the Suffolk Golf and Water Park in Bramford, Suffolk. “He used his three wood to hit the shot. It bounced a couple of times and went in the hole,” said Mr Huggins, a banker. “He wasn’t really interested in finishing the round after that.”
