Nocum scores ace
MANILA, Philippines - Jungolfer Ashia Marie Nocum scored her fifth hole-in-one in the second leg of the Junior Golf Association of the Philippines inter-school tournament for girls at the Valley Golf and Country Club in Antipolo, Rizal recently.
Nocum, 11, used an 8-iron to ace the 110-yard No. 12 hole in a flight that included Sam Bruce, Mika Fortuna and Sophia Blanco.
“I did not see the ball go in, I was only being careful not to hit the big water hazard between me and the hole. I thought the ball disappeared in the green; I only realized it was another ace when my fellow players, their parents and caddies erupted in loud cheers. I was dumb-founded,” said the Grade 6 student of the school of the Holy Spirit in QC.
