Wentworth. England’s Andrew Johnston was left literally jumping for Joy after winning a top-of-the-range BMW M4 for landing a hole in one at the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth today.

Nicknamed ‘Beef’, the 26-year-old Englishman could not believe his luck as his well-struck seven-iron found the hole from 168 metres at the par-three 10th of Wentworth’s iconic West Course. The ball took one bounce, hit the flag and went straight in.

Such was the player’s delight that it sparked what will probably go down as one of the most flamboyant of celebrations seen this year. After an impromptu little dance Johnston, who lies 68th on the Race to Dubai rankings, sprinted off the tee to bump chests with a friend he had spotted in the gallery. “I just saw him and thought, ‘Right. Now is the time to go.’ It was perfect timing,” he said.

This was Johnston’s second hole in one in the professional ranks. The first one won him 168 bottles of champagne at last year’s Scottish Open, although he didn’t reveal if he had kept any on ice for just such a moment. With a 106,500 euros price tag, the M4 tops anything he has won as a professional so far. Little wonder, then, that he was so happy.

CO2 emission information.

Fuel consumption, CO2 emission figures and power consumption and range were measured using the methods required according to Regulation VO (EC) 2007/715 as amended. They refer to vehicles on the German automotive market. For ranges, the NEDC figures take into account differences in the selected wheel and tyre size, while the WLTP figures take into account the effects of any optional equipment.

All figures have already been calculated based on the new WLTP test cycle. NEDC figures listed have been adjusted to the NEDC measurement method where applicable. WLTP values are used as a basis for the assessment of taxes and other vehicle-related duties which are (also) based on CO2 emissions and, where applicable, for the purposes of vehicle-specific subsidies. Further information on the WLTP and NEDC measurement procedures is also available at www.bmw.de/wltp.

For further details of the official fuel consumption figures and official specific CO2 emissions of new cars, please refer to the “Manual on the fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and power consumption of new cars”, available at sales outlets free of charge, from Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH (DAT), Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern-Scharnhausen and at https://www.dat.de/co2/.
