It's not often that a golfer posts a score lower than his age, but a Hopeman octogenarian has achieved the feat on his home course.
Not only did Allan Reid record a score lower than his 82 years, he went six shots under with an incredible round of 76.
His landmark 18-hole effort was witnessed by playing partners Billy Young and Allan Rodger.
