SAN DIEGO — Michael Christensen, founder of the U.S.-based Double Eagle Club recognizing golfers who score three strokes under par on a single hole, is very familiar with the name of Tyler Schutz.
The North County resident, who turned 26 on Jan. 1, twice made the club's elite list of amateur golfers who shot a double eagle last year — in February and again in November.
In between those two notable achievements, Schutz scored a hole-in-one at Torrey Pines South Golf Course on the 161-yard, par-3 eighth hole. In each case, he teed off from the white (middle) tees.
