At age 92, Leo Fiyalko did what most golfers only dream about doing -

he hit a hole-in-one.

Too bad he didn't get to see it.

Fiyalko, who suffers from macular degeneration, is legally blind and

had no idea he'd aced the 110-yard, fifth hole at Cove Cay County

Club in Clearwater, Fla. until he heard cheering.

" I was just trying to put the ball on the green, " Fiyalko said.

Fiyalko's wife, Pat, said her hubby isn't kidding.

" If you're talking to him, he can't see your face, " Pat Fiyalko, 83,

said. " He knows where the [golf] greens are because he began playing

here before his eyes started going, so he aims for them. "

Fiyalko, who began golfing when he moved down to Florida from Ohio in

the 1950's, said, " How about that " when he defied 12,000-to-1 odds

and made the shot on Jan. 10.

If it were up to Fiyalko, his amazing shot would have remained a

family secret — just like the other hole-in-one he made years ago,

his wife said.

" The first one he made was outside play, so it didn't really count, "

Pat Fiyalko said. " It was a while back, I can't remember
