Gary Nicklaus Jr., grandson of golf legend Jack Nicklaus, has become one of the protagonists of the traditional par 3 contest that kicks off the Masters of Augusta. The young man, who was acting as caddie for his grandfather, made this sensational shot on the 9th hole under the watchful eyes of Nicklaus and Gary Player, who together have won 27 majors.
With all due respect to @themasters, allow me to put my 6 Green Jackets in the closet for a moment and say that I don’t know if I have had a more special day on a golf course. To have your grandson make his first hole-in-one on this stage.... WOW! #Family #memoryofalifetime
