Check Out This Amazing 3-Year Old Golfer…AMAZING!

by Jeff Skinner

Golf isn’t an easy game. Anyone who has tried this sport with any conviction can certainly attest to that.

There is always at least one time during my round I wonder why I even took up this crazy game. And after a few seconds I always come back to the fact that I love to play.

Little Tommy Morrissey loves to play golf too. The 3-year old from Lindwood, New Jersey loves the game like all of us hackers and does his best to hit it long.

And for a youngster his age he truly does. But what is truly amazing about Tommy is that he does it with one arm.

Due to a blood clot during pregnancy he was left with only a working left arm but boy does he put it to good use.

Now here is a young man that gets it. There are no swing thoughts or waggles or anything to distract him from just gripping it and ripping it.

His dad said he gets plenty of attention on the course, even before people realize he’s a one-hander.

“They look at him and see how small he is and they say, ‘Awesome, the little guy can hit a golf ball,” Tommy’s father, Joe, said to Fox 29. “And then they look and they see that he’s doing it with one hand and they say, ‘That’s incredible.’ And then after they watch him, after they learn, he’s just a little boy, just killing it, they walk away and say, ‘he’s an inspiration.'” 

I’ll think of Tommy the next time I get frustrated on the course. An inspiration…absolutely.
