This year's PNC Championship was specific in many ways. Golf fans had the opportunity to enjoy the phenomenal moves of golf legends and their successors. The winners of this year's tournament were Bernhard Langer and his youngest son, Jason. The two of them are the best confirmation that youth and experience are a good formula for success.

What makes this year's PNC special is that Charlie Woods hit his first hole-in-one, and his father Tiger's reaction was really great. However, Charlie is not the only one who succeeded in this.
Paddraig Harrington's son Paddy also did the same on the eighth hole. Padraig could not hide his excitement at the end of the tournament, amazed by his son's move.
Ive never been so excited in my life, Harrington said, as quoted by Irish Golfer.
It was a great shot, which is nice.
I know my first hole-in-one wasnt a spectacularly good shot. That was perfect swing, perfect shot, and when it went in, Ive never experienced anything like it, the joy of it. Because obviously you can win tournaments and do that, and thats a different sort of pressure and excitement."

Padraig Harrington: You hear the noise, and youre watching; the crowds know
Padrag could not believe that his son had done such a big thing. The reaction of the crowd draws even more excitement, and moments like these are what a golfer remembers for the rest of his life. Padraig rated this tournament as one of the most beautiful experiences, hoping that they can be equally successful in the coming years.
I couldnt believe it because we see it happen a lot. You hear the noise, and youre watching; the crowds know, they go berserk, and you go berserk. To be honest, it was a really nice pairing, the OMearas. Everybody enjoyed it. I dont think it could have been a better golfing moment."- he concluded.
