Remember those old golf videos of Tiger Woods as a toddler, showing the incredible potential he had even as a wee little one? Yeah, well, meet Bennett Sheldon, the one-year-old with a sweeter golf stroke than many adults.
Bennett even has his own Instagram, YouTube and Facebook accounts, all of which state, “I’m not even two, but my swing is a 10.”
Lil bro isn’t kidding.
Bennett has even already made an appearance on TV with a feature on the local news down in Houston.
Sheldon’s mother said he has been golfing since he could walk. She adds that Bennett’s father, Wes Sheldon, is a former pro at River Oaks.
Wes knew Bennett was special.
“We started noticing early on,” Wes Sheldon said. “Wherever we’re at, whether we’re at a restaurant, he wants to carry a club with him.

Yes, life is good for Bennett, however he has run into one issue with all the golfing he does. He can’t find any golf gloves in his size so he’s had to deal with blisters. Apparently there aren’t a lot of manufacturers trying to corner the one-year-old kid golf market. Go figure.
Check out some more highlights of Sheldon and remember his name when he’s tearing up the PGA Tour in 15 to 20 years.
