With a confident and relaxed smile, Jiang Qingkui gestured at Zhou Wang to "please."
After the caddy set up the ball, Zhou Wang, humming, approached, twisted his neck, stretched his limbs a bit, and casually swung the club a few times before standing still.
Because of Jiang Qingkui’s beautiful shot, Zhang Shihao, Chen Wentao, and others, who were just resting, were drawn to look. Seeing Zhou Wang’s casual and amateur stance, Chen Wentao suddenly understood.
So Mr. Zhou wasn’t unwilling to play with him, he really couldn’t!
Jiang Qingkui couldn’t help but smile again. Once she was sure Zhou Wang wasn’t "pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger," she completely relaxed.
"Boss, an improper stance might injure you, shall I help you correct it?"
"No need, I’ll just play !"
Zhou Wang didn’t let Jiang Qingkui approach, just waved her off and gripped the club firmly.
Before teeing off, Zhou Wang glanced at Jiang Qingkui, who was struggling to suppress a smile at the corner of her mouth. His originally angry expression vanished, replaced by an imperceptible hint of a smile.
Big-butt Qingkui, you really think you’ve got this in the bag?
This morning, after [Jiang Mo’s Soul Greeting Card] refreshed, the latest skill he acquired was called "Small Ball Mastery."
Isn’t that just a coincidence...
Of course, the so-called "Small Ball Mastery" actually covered a broad range, including badminton, table tennis, and billiards... Zhou Wang hadn’t tried improper or unusual types of balls yet, so he didn’t know if those were included.
Zhou Wang surmised that these sports skills were relatively fringe, which was why they were bundled by the system into a single Skill Card.
Since it’s "small balls," golf naturally was included as well.
While the Skill Card wouldn’t transform Zhou Wang into a master immediately, it did grant him a fast-learning ability, or to put it simply, a two-word summary... talent.
Even with this, Zhou Wang wasn’t sure he could beat Jiang Qingkui, but don’t forget.
Under the blessing of the "Wolong Chessboard," Zhou Wang believed himself to be the favored one, not thinking he would lose the bet against Jiang Qingkui.
Let’s see what happens today when you challenge someone with cheats!
After a smile, Zhou Wang, under Jiang Qingkui’s inexplicable expression, lifted the club high and swung it down fiercely.
Despite having an imprecise stance, at the moment Zhou Wang swung the club, his body instinctually adjusted itself, causing the club to carve a perfect arc.
The struck golf ball soared high, flying over the fairway and obstacle zone, landing far away on the green.
Zhang Shihao and others exclaimed again, and Chen Wentao reassessed his previous assumption...
Okay, so it seems Zhou Wang just didn’t feel like playing with him.
Jiang Qingkui was also a bit stunned, feeling a mix of embarrassment and annoyance. She thought Zhou Wang fell into her trap, but now it appeared she was once again the clown.
Zhou Wang also hit the ball into the final round with one shot, making the outcome uncertain again. Nonetheless, Jiang Qingkui quickly adjusted, as the result was not yet decided.
Even though Zhou Wang had his cards hidden, wasn’t this all the more interesting?
Just as Jiang Qingkui took a deep breath, smiling anew and ready to say something to Zhou Wang, a caddy responsible for finding the ball on the green started running excitedly towards them, gesturing wildly as he ran.
As he got closer, everyone finally heard his shout:
"Albatross! It’s an Albatross!"
Except for Zhou Wang, who was bewildered, everyone else was visibly stunned—Jiang Qingkui also wore a look of incredulity and turned sharply to look at Zhou Wang.
Zhou Wang didn’t understand why Zhang Shihao and others were looking at him with such shock, so he asked, slightly confused.
"An albatross! You made an ’Albatross’!"
Chen Wentao was more excited than anyone, running over. "Mr. Zhou, this is the first time I’ve seen someone hit an ’Albatross’ in reality, you’re amazing!"
"What does ’Albatross’ mean?"
"It’s like a ’hole-in-one,’ or more precisely, a hole-in-one on a par-four hole!"
Chen Wentao explained, still a bit excited.
Did I hit a hole-in-one?
Zhou Wang was also a bit surprised, then relieved. I thought so!
At this moment, Zhang Shihao and others snapped back to attention, equally excited. They quickly ordered the caddy to get the camera replay.
"Brother, how are you staying so calm? This is an ’Albatross’ ball, doesn’t it stir you even a little?"
While waiting, everyone was eagerly discussing, except for Zhou Wang, who remained extraordinarily calm. Seeing this, Zhang Shihao couldn’t help but ask.
"Is a hole-in-one that hard?"
When Zhou Wang asked this, everyone’s expressions turned complicated.
Okay, okay, you want to play it like that?
"I genuinely don’t know, can someone explain it to me?"
The more powerless Zhou Wang appeared, the more he exuded an air of superiority. At this point, even the downcast Jiang Qingkui didn’t want to engage with Zhou Wang anymore.
Finally, it was the pretty assistant who softly explained it to Zhou Wang.
After her explanation, Zhou Wang realized he might have indeed acted quite pretentious.
Taking the shortest possible three-par hole as an example, for professional golfers, getting the ball in within three strokes is "par," while a hole-in-one is the rare "Eagle," also known as an eagle shot.
