Viral Video Shows 4-Year-Old Boy Hit Hole-in-One Like a Golf Pro

A 4-year-old boy amazed his father when he nailed a hole-in-one at a golf course in Wheeling, West Virginia.

Mario Figaretti and his son, Rocco, were at Oglebay’s Par 3 course when the young boy made the impressive shot.

After Rocco hit the ball, it landed just short of the green and rolled directly into the hole.

"Rocco, you just hit a hole-in-one!" the dad said.

Figaretti said his son started practicing at age 3, and it's been fun watching his skills develop.

"He practices all the time in the yard," he wrote on Facebook. "To say I’m proud would be an understatement!"

Rocco Figaretti is definitely a PGA type name.

A hole in one.

At 4-years old.

He's ruined for life; nothing will ever match this, everything will be a disappointment and it's all downhill forever.

My question is how did a 4-year old afford to pay for a round for the entire clubhouse? Some places that could be north of $1000.

Did they give him a tab? He may be paying this off for years.

Just one piece of advice, kid. As your golf career soars, find one woman and be faithful to her.

Did he have insurance?

How is he going to buy a round at the 19th?

Actually, this happened to me the first time I ever played golf as well. I was totally shocked since I had never really practiced or anything before.

But on the second hole, that windmill really spoiled my shot.
