BERNARD STRAUSS GETS HOLE-IN-ONE
Bernard Strauss, Birmingham, Ala., got down to some serious golf on Tuesday, August 9th, at the Hillcrest Country Club. On the No. 8 hole, Bernard took a No. 4 iron from his bag and with a mighty swing placed the ball right in the cup. Congratulations, Bernard!
By the way, Bernard is only 13 years old, so he'll be ready for the next MCAA Golf Tournament.
