Bill Tucholski reports yet another hole-in-one during the 2022 Wyandotte Classic.

Michigan hole-in-one ace Bill Tucholski reports yet another one (others are listed below). His latest found the cup during the 2022 Wyandotte Classic on June 4. He has had four aces during his 60 years of golf, he says, but this one was special as the round, indeed the entire tournament, was played in the memory of Ed Ronco, a founder of the Wyandotte Hickory Organization and past president of the Society of Hickory Golfers, who passed away in February 2022. The ace happened on hole no. 5 of the nine-hole Wyandotte Shores Golf Course, a par three that plays 110 yards. A bottle of Jameson was placed on that tee box for the players to enjoy a wee nip in Ed’s memory as they passed by. On Bill’s second pass through the hole (it was an 18-hole event), the players noticed the bottle was near empty, so they left what remained for others. “However,” says Bill, “after what happened next, our foursome decided to have another go-around. With Ed still on my mind, I hit my mashie niblick pure as could be. With a bounce and release on the green, my ball found it’s resting spot in the bottom of the cup! None of my previous aces has ever been, or dare I say, will ever be more satisfying than this one.” Yes, Mr. Tucholski purchased drinks for all players in the pub after the round.
