A hole-in-one brings delight for any golfer but sometimes they mean a little more than others…
There have been 36 editions of the Aberdeen Standard Investments Scottish Open and in 2019 they go into uncharted territory. A new golf course by the name of The Renaissance Golf Club.
There’s extra incentive for the field in North Berwick this week as a perfect shot on the 17th hole - namely the unbelievable prize on offer for the first player to make a hole-in-one during competition rounds at The Renaissance.
