James Morrison aces to win BMW

But Rikard Carlsberg misses out

James Morrison won his second BMW in four years after acing the par three 14th hole in the fourth round of the BMW PGA Championship.Morrison holed a five iron from 187 yards to win a top of the range BMW i8, adding to the 6-series Gran Coupe he won at the 2012 Irish Open at Royal Portrush.

It was the third hole-in-one of the week at Wentworth Club, following Scott Jamieson on the tenth on Friday, which won him a BMW M2, and Rikard Karlberg, also on Sunday, on the second.

Morrison said: “I went from making double bogey to hitting the best shot I’ve hit all week, straight down the flag. 

“Watching the highlights, it’s gone in at real speed. I gave my caddie a bit of an earful as I thought it had gone over the green, but it was a great feeling when I realised it had gone in. The crowd were amazing. 

“I’m going to keep the car, for sure. I’ve been looking for a new car anyway. I would have preferred to play better over the weekend – plus four at the weekend doesn’t really get it done – but it’s a nice end to a really good week.

Asked if he felt sorry for Karlberg, who did not win a prize for his ace, Morrison joked: “I’m going to Tweet him, Facebook him and text him tonight – he’s going get it from both barrels.”
