To do both in front of a bunch of close friends is an unbelievable moment that I will cherish forever.
I have heard of people making '2s' before and winning golf tournaments, e.g., Lew Worsham's 104-yard wedge shot at the last to steal the World Golf Championship from Chandler Harper way back in '53, but...

I have never heard of someone making '1' and winning an event, professional or amateur. This is Golf World, Golfweek, Golf and Golf Digest stuff. Maybe even the Guiness Book of World Records. Hopefully, the wires are burning!

Thanks, Jeff, for this post and for letting us live the moment with you.
