Jack Nicklaus Gets Hole-In-One During Masters Contest

RENEE MONTAGNE, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. There are plenty of young hotshots in pro golf. Yesterday, they were all showed up by a legend. At Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, Jack Nicklaus made a hole-in-one for the first time since he started playing in the PGA Tour 54 years ago. Today, Nicklaus makes a ceremonial tee shot to kick off the Masters tournament. If that one goes in, maybe he'll think about coming out of retirement. What do you think? It's MORNING EDITION.
