Sherwood Park's 92-Year-Old Golfer Achieves Second Hole-in-One |
Verna Stevenson defies age with remarkable golfing feat |
 |
Verna Stevenson, a 92-year-old golfer from Sherwood Park, has once again demonstrated that age is no barrier to excellence on the golf course.
In mid-July, during a regular ladies' league game at Country Side Golf Club, Verna achieved her second career hole-in-one on hole three.
Her first ace occurred at the age of 78, making this latest accomplishment even more remarkable.
Verna, who has been a dedicated golfer for over three decades, plays twice a week alongside her daughter, Karen.
Reflecting on the moment, Verna said, "If I hit it, my ball will generally go straight. I got lucky and it rolled in."
Her daughter, Karen, who witnessed both hole-in-ones, expressed her amazement: "It's just really kind of special when you see someone get a hole-in-one, and she's the only one I've seen get a hole-in-one."
Verna's achievement serves as an inspiration to golfers of all ages, proving that passion and dedication can lead to extraordinary moments on the course.
