QUOTE OF THE WEEK

‘THE LPGA do a great job of giving back, so to know that will happen after my hole in one is a big bonus. And for me it beats getting a car, so I’m happy about that.’

England’ s Meg h an Mac La r en, after learning he race at the women’ s Australian Open led to a £16,000 donation to a children’ s hospital. How much nicer would it be if holes in one were recognised in this way, rather than a golf er getting a car he—and it’ s nearly always am an— will probably never drive and which will make no difference to his life.
