Offered here is Gene Sarazen's actual golf ball from a Hole in One that he achieved on April 13, 1975 at Marco Island Country Club in Florida. This hole in one came less than two years removed from the most famous ace of Sarazen's career - in the 1973 Open Championship on Royal Troon's Postage Stamp hole. 

The ball itself is autographed by Gene Sarazen, who added the notations "Hole in One" and "April 13, 1975." The ball also comes with exceptional provenance, including an original news clipping about Sarazen's feat and a note from the ball's owner.
