Jimmy Jones, 86, watches his ball fly away after teeing off while playing a round of golf with friends at Riverbend Golf Course in Kent Wednesday, July 11, 2018. In golf, it’s a big deal to shoot under your age. Jimmy shot a 68 at Riverbend recently. He’s a lifetime golfer who was golfing back in the day when it was a rarity for black men to play golf. He even used to make his own clubs.
