Rollins did exactly that, drawing a roar from the gallery and securing the biggest single-shot prize of the tournament. It was the first hole-in-one of his career.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">&#8220;Trying to catch my breath,&#8221; he said after the clutch shot. &#8220;It was the third hole, so I started on the back.

The tournament features athletes, actors and entertainers competing in a Modified Stableford scoring format. (That means players earn points based on their performance on each hole, with a higher score indicating a better result \u2014 as opposed to just counting strokes.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/sports\/charles-barkley-shoots-unreal-eagle-american-century-championship\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Charles Barkley Shoots Unreal Eagle At American Century Championship<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">Rollins is a longtime participant in the event.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">Over his 17-year MLB career, Rollins earned a reputation as one of baseball&#8217;s best shortstops. He was the 2007 National League MVP, a three-time All-Star and a four-time Gold Glove winner. He helped lead the Philadelphia Phillies to a World Series title in 2008 and finished his career with more than 2,400 hits and 470 stolen bases.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">Now, he can add &#8220;boat winner&#8221; to his r\u00e9sum\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">The MasterCraft X24 is a top-of-the-line wake surf and ski boat. And conveniently enough, Tahoe has a pretty decent lake where Rollins can try it out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The former Philadelphia Phillies star hit the shot of a lifetime Saturday at the annual celebrity golf tournament,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7456,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[427,99],"class_list":["post-7455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-golf","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7455"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7455\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7456"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
