DROMOLAND Castle Golf Club officials have revealed Waterford senior hurling boss Davy Fitzgerald struck a stunning hole-in-one at a par four hole recently.
Former Clare goalkeeper Fitzgerald joined an elite golfing club with an ace at the 266-yard par-four 15th after hitting a four-wood off the tee.
Dromoland secretary/manager John O’Halloran estimated that over a dozen holes-in-one have been recorded at par 3 holes since the spectacular Co Clare course was redeveloped 18 years ago but he believes that this was the first time it’s been done at a par four there.
O’Halloran said: “Davy has been a member here for 15 years. He has played everything from Pierce Purcell Shield, Junior Cup to Senior Cup. He’s an excellent player with a great attitude and if he was ever to take the game up as a professional, I could see him going all the way.”
[COLOR=“Blue”]Tis no coincidence that the small man from Clare practically brought us to the promised land last september but it seems his abilties have no bounds.
Never before it appears has a hole in one ever been achieved on this hole. it leads me to believe that we have the chosen one in Waterford at the moment, perhaps his wizardry has no bounds.
twas the promised land for as long as we were there, thats more than can be said for a lot of the spoofers here
theres always this year Bandage, as someone once said…they haven’t gone away you know…
