J oel Kahn, M.D., Medical Director of Wellness Programs,
Preventive Cardiology and Cardiac Rehabilitation at
Detroit Medical Center Cardiovascular Institute is now
seeing patients in Novi, Clinton Township and Detroit.
After four decades, a hole-in-one.
Steve Stein
Contributing Writer
A
hole-in-one usually comes
as a big surprise to the golfer
who shoots it. Frank Wolff's
first ace in 40 years of playing golf was
a total shock.
The self-described "recreational duf-
fer" didn't see his tee shot roll into the
cup. In fact, he had no idea where his
7-iron shot came to a halt on the green
of the 133-yard, par-three 12th hole
last month at Huntmore Golf Club in
Brighton.
"You can see the flag from the tee
but not the hole,' the Farmington Hills
resident said. "I knew I had sent a shot
in the right direction, but I didn't know
where the ball rolled after it landed. It
could have been 50 feet past the hole,
or 30 feet in front of it:'
Adding to the suspense was the fact
that Wolff's foursome had allowed a
golfer playing by himself to play though
on the hole.
After the solo golfer sank his putt, he
looked into the cup, found another golf
ball there, and yelled back to the tee,
"Who's using a Titleist 1?"
That's when Wolff found out he'd
shot a hole-in-one. The witnesses in his
foursome July 14 were Paul Keller, Phil
Perlstein and Steve Roth. Wolff was the
third player in the foursome to tee off
on the hole.
"That was one lucky shot, a once-
in-a-lifetime shot:' said Wolff, 68, who
predicted it will be his first and only
hole-in-one.
The financial planner shot 101 for 18
holes in his personal history-making
round.
Down To The Wire
It's playoff time in the Inter-
Congregational Men's Club Summer
Softball League.
Six playoff games July 31 whittled the
12-team field to four for the semifinals
and finals Aug. 7. Semifinals will be
played at 9 a.m., followed by the cham-
pionship game at 10:45 a.m.
League games are played Sundays
at Keith Elementary School in West
Bloomfield.
Perennial league power Temple Shir
Shalom earned the No. 1 seed in the play-
offs and a first-round bye by going 12-0
during the regular season. Also getting a
bye were second-seed Temple Israel No. 2
and third-seed Temple Kol Ami.
Two of the three teams that benefited
from a bye qualified for the semifinals.
On Sunday, Shir Shalom will meet No. 6
seed Temple Beth El and Temple Israel
will face No. 4 seed Congregation Beth
Ahm, with the winners battling for the
league championship.
Shir Shalom has won four of the last
five league championships and two in
a row. Kol Ami interrupted the streak
in 2008.

Cold Coffee
Former University of Michigan pitcher
Eric Katzman had a proverbial "cup
of coffee" with the Pittsfield (Mass.)
Colonials of the independent Can-Am
League.
Signed on June 19 to his first profes-
sional contract, Katzman was cut July
3 by the Colonials after posting an
inflated 14.85 ERA in three starts.
The southpaw from Harrington Park,
N.J., pitched for the Wolverines until 2010.
