Meet Ida Pieracci, the 102-year-old golfer with the key to a long, happy life

Ida Pieracci

Ida Pieracci grew up beside the San Jose Country Club and considers it her second home.

At 102 years of age, she holds the record for most holes-in-one at the club, with 11, and continues to play golf four or five days per week.

When asked what the key to living a long and happy life was, she replied, “Just being a good kid!”

Watch Ida’s video below, and if her story doesn’t get you excited first day of spring, I’m not sure what will.
