Best golfer and bowler in the world died

Kim Jong-Il: A sporting life (with golf, bowling, soccer and basketball interests) - The Early Lead - The Washington Post

In his very first golf game in 1994, Kim finished an 18-hole round of golf at 38-under par — over the 7,700-yard championship course at Pyongyang, according to state media. Kim was in a zone, recording five holes-in-one (some reports have the number as high as 11). Another legend had him bowling a perfect 300 in his first attempt at the sport, but that one may have strained the bonds of credulity to the breaking point.

Thats about 227 yards per swing, not to shabby for a 5ft, overweight, short armed man.

I refuse to believe that a guy named Kim can hit the ball 227 once. Kim Short Il
