He’s a total baller.
A golf buff was so thrilled to get a hole-in-one at an acclaimed California course, that he bought everyone on his airplane flight a round of shots — sending his fellow passengers into the stratosphere, a report said Wednesday.
The golfer, identified only as Tod, hit the ace shot with a 3-wood on the No. 4 hole at the San Francisco Golf Club Tuesday, he said in a brief interview with a Golf Digest reporter posted on Twitter.
“It was right from the back tee, probably 225 [yards],” he told golf videographer Hally Leadbetter, who happened to be on the plane. “I cut it in there for the first hole-in-one of my life.”
The surprise drinks — which went above and beyond the usual golfing tradition of a duffer buying everyone drinks at the clubhouse bar after getting a hole-in-one — made the flight way above par, Leadbetter said.
“There is a man on my flight who just announced to the plane he had his first hole-in-one today and is buying shots for everyone on the aircraft!” she tweeted.
The footage was filmed by LPGA pro Michelle Wie West, a friend of Leadbetter, according to golfdigest.com, the first to report the flight’s good fore-tune.
“Congrats, Tod!” Leadbetter wrote.
