Aussie rookie's hole in one wins BMW

Australia's Deyen Lawson has a new BMW to show for a hole in one in the final round of the European Tour's Alfred Dunhill Championship in South Africa.

Australian rookie Deyen Lawson has signed off 2018 with a new car worth more than $250,000 to show for a golden patch of golf in just his fourth European Tour event.

The 27-year-old Victorian won a BMW 850 M for a hole in one on the par-3 16th in the final round of the Alfred Dunhill Championship at Leopard Creek Country Club in South Africa.

Remarkably, it was his second consecutive eagle, following a three at the par-5 15th.

His hot finish lifted him into a tie for 47th on Sunday, his second-best result after a tied 30th in the Hong Kong Open.

Lawson earned a European Tour card at the qualifying school last month.
