Talk about two unbreakable records.
Florida’s Gus Andreone already held the record as the PGA of America’s oldest living player. Now he’s added another feather to his cap: oldest member to ever hit an ace.
The 103- year-old Andreone aced the 113-yard No. 14 at the Lakes Course of Palm Aire Country Club in Sarasota last week, breaking the seven-year-old record held by Elsie McLean (age 102) in 2007,
Andreone shot an 83 on the day at the 4,535-yard course. It’s the eighth ace of Andreone’s playing career, coming a mere 75 years after his first one, back in 1939 when he was 28 years old.
