'Rubbish' golfer hits hole-in-one
Occasional golfer Allan Errington, 43, was averaging seven shots a hole while playing at a staff event. But he hit a perfect shot on the par three 9th hole and it bounced once before going in - earning himself a Volkswagen Golf. Mr Errington, of Aberdeen, said he lost 23 balls during the rest of his round at Newmachar Golf Club. (08/07) MoreYou may also like
