Ken Anderson shot a 6-under-par 65 in round two at Lake Sarri. His 53-year-old father, Mike, a former professional golfer, hit the 8th hole-in-one of his life on the par-3. Anderson reported, “Father and son can still talk about golf. ‘Ken, you don’t forget it.’ ‘Yeah, I don’t.’ Dad: ‘You’re not doing yourself any good if you don’t remember.’ When Dad found the ball on the green, Ken said with a grin, ‘Dad, we’ve got a hole-in-one! Dad: ‘Not in this group!’ ”
