An OAP golfer was overcome with joy after he hit a hole-in-one at the age of 91 years young.<\/p>\n

Willie Clinton is nine years short of 100, but he proved he can still wallop a ball more than 100 yards on the golf course. Considering his lofty age, the fact he is still able to have a round while pushing his own golf trolley is impressive in itself.<\/p>\n

However, the senior citizen proved class is permanent when he became one of the oldest players to ever hit a hole-in-one. After a video of the delighted pensioner celebrating his miraculous shot was uploaded onto the social media, sports fans came out in their numbers to serenade him with praise.<\/p>\n

"This is absolutely brilliant," one fan commented. "91 years old. Imagine still loving and being able to do sport at that age," a second tweeted.<\/p>\n

One heavily inspired golfer conveyed his sheer admiration for Clinton when they wrote: "Something we can all aspire to." An almost emotional sounding fan also said: "What a sport man, I\u2019ll be buzzing if I\u2019m still walking the course at 91."<\/p>\n

Another member of the golfing world also said: "This fella deserves sport\u2019s personality of the year." While fans were finding all sorts of ways to crown his miraculous achievement, one supporter kept things simple by saying: "Well done that man!! I hope I'm still hitting a ball around at his age. Great to see."<\/p>\n

In the video, Clinton could be seen smiling and laughing when he and his friends realised he got a hole-in-one. He marked the occasion by picking the ball out of the hole and lifting it into the air like a trophy. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

However, if he has ambitions of becoming the oldest ever player to hit a hole-in-one, he will need to wait another 12 years. The Guinness World Record for the oldest player to record that feat belongs to PGA professional Gus Andreone. <\/p>\n

He was 103 years old when he found the hole at the first time of asking from 113-yards at Palm Aire Country Club in Sarasota, Fla, in 2014. Andreone passed away at the age of 107 in 2018. <\/p>\n
