PGA trainee Bradley Wallis franks his form as a pending pro with a hole-in-one on his home track at Belmont in Whanganui.
Bradley Wallis may have had divine intervention after slotting an ace on the second hole at his old home away from home at Belmont.
The Wanganui Golf Club member has just completed his first year as a PGA trainee at the Royal Wellington Club and returned home to witness the
scattering of his late grandfather Hank Hagenaars' ashes on Friday.
Before the ceremony, young Wallis went out for a round with his dad, Pete Wallis, and uncle Keith Slight, better known for his lawn bowling prowess.
"Keith and I were in the buggy watching Bradley's shot on the first [hole] and thought that had gone in, or gone pretty close," Pete recalled.
"But we all watched in amazement when he slotted his first ever hole-in-one on the second. We couldn't miss it, we all saw it. He used a six iron into a stiff breeze and it just rolled in. He was only up from Wellington for the scattering of his grandfather's ashes and we decided to head out for a hit in the morning, maybe it was divine intervention."
