Tiger Woods' Bluejack National Golf Course in Montgomery, Texas, is the first U.S. course designed by the 14-time major winner, and it opened on Nov. 15. However, The Playgrounds at Bluejack National, a short 10-hole course, opened on Wednesday, and 11-year-old Tyler Crozier delivered a great inaugural moment.

Crozier banged a hole-in-one on the first hole in the first official shot on The Playgrounds in front of an enormous crowd. Woods celebrated with the youngster by giving him a big hug and applauding the milestone achievement.

Woods also took his reaction to social media:

Crozier is from Corpus Christi, Texas, and hadn't missed a day of school in his life until Wednesday to participate in the official opening of The Playgrounds. That first absence of his scholastic career was certainly worth it after he nailed an ace on the 81-yard par-3 first hole.

He was one of two junior golfers representing the South Texas PGA who got the opportunity to play with Woods in the event at Bluejack. 

Woods, 40, is still rehabbing from two back surgeries that he underwent in September and October. However, he seems to be making good progress after he posted a video of him swinging a golf club last week, which was the first time that the public witnessed him swing anything in about six months. Additionally, he announced on his website Wednesday that he began chipping, putting and even hitting some 9-irons for the first time since the last PGA Tour season.

He's still unsure of when he'll return to competitive golf, but he's expected to rest for as long as possible in order to avoid a setback. Woods prematurely returned from back surgery in 2014, and that led to further issues, ultimately ending with his two most recent procedures.

The extent of his recent golf competition has been with his son, Charlie, and apparently with other youngsters at Bluejack.
