Jarmo Sandelin sinks hole in one and takes the lead

Following in the footsteps of Lee Slattery earlier in the day, European Tour winner Jarmo Sandelin has sunk a hole in one at the Farmfoods British Par 3 Championship.

Not only has he achieved what all golfers crave, he has also taken the lead in the professional tournament as the final round hots up.

Now on -8 he is a shot ahead of overnight leader and reigning champion Steven Tiley and two ahead of fellow Staysure Tour player Gary Wolstenholme MBE.

There is still a long way to go in the event which sees the winning player scoop €50,000 first prize that comes with the title.

Jarmo’s prize for scoring a hole in one is a seven night stay at a two bedroom apartment in the stunning Spanish city of Murcia. This prize is courtesy of event organisers Champions (UK) plc.
