Matthew McVicker Groebe made his first HOLE IN ONE at Shadow Creek Golf Course in Oak Lawn, holing out on the 114 yard par 3 in one shot with his 8 iron. The ball was lodged between the hole and the pin so he dutifully followed his Dad's instructions (who could not tell that the ball was in the hole) to "mark the ball". When his Dad, David Groebe, saw the ball mark inside the hole he asked Matti Mc "what is this?" Applauding spectators explained and Matt scored his first HOLE IN ONE! Congratulations and welcome to the HOLE IN ONE CLUB!
