Golfer wins Jeep after hole-in-one: video

A WA golfer holed an ace yesterday, to claim a $65,000 Jeep Cherokee.

The Australian 4-ball Championship was held at Royal Pines on the Gold Coast yesterday, and a video camera has caught the moment when WA golfer John Stewart records an ace on the 142m par three 7th hole.

I’ve got to say, despite the lack of audio, the reactions from all (including the magpie) are incredibly subdued. Can you imagine this sort of reaction taking place if the same thing happened in the US?

Silent films are all the rage at the moment, and this one is a beauty.
