A man in his 70s who is suffering from a sight handicap is in the spotlight after scoring three holes-in-one within the space of a month.

According to Fox News and CNN, the 77-year-old Bob Robertson hit three holes-in-one with a sex iron on the second hole of a public golf course in Tennessee.

This is particularly surprising since he suffered a stroke and lost sight in his right eye.

He was nick-named “dead-eye” because of his astonishing golfing skills even before the stroke but people let go of it after he lost his right eye.

Not disturbed by his condition, he said he does not mind being called the “dead-eye” despite his condition.
