Kid makes hole-in-one then gets congratulated by Tiger Woods
Tiger Woods congratulates 11-year-old boy Holden Bautista on making a hole-in-one at his TGR Jr. Invitational at The Hay, Pebble Beach.
Imagine being able to say you made a hole-in-one in front of Tiger Woods and then got a handshake and congratulatory "I'm proud of you" message all the age of 11?!
Well that is just what happened for youngster Holden Bautista during the TGR Jr Invitational at The Hay, a par-3 course at Pebble Beach.
The Hay is a golf course that Woods helped design a few years back.
In what appeared like foggy morning scenes, Bautista made the ace and then went wild on the tee box with his playing partners.
The ace was met with cheers and claps from those watching on, which included Woods.
UPDATE: HOLDEN MADE TWO ACES IN ONE ROUND!
HE THEN MOCKED TIGER WOODS ON STAGE!

It marks the first time that Woods has been seen hitting full shots in the public spotlight since his ankle surgery following The Masters in April.
Golf Channel's Todd Lewis believes there is a good chance Woods could return to competitive action at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas at the end of November.
There is also expectation Woods and his son Charlie will tee it up in the PNC Championship just before Christmas.
