Chloe Veeran, a one-marker, was playing in the first group of the final round in the South West Open at Bunbury Golf Club when she holed the lucrative shot. The Busselton Golf Club member watched as her ball hit the green and rolled toward the cup, then could hardly contain her excitement when she couldn’t see her ball and discovered she had made an ace.

In doing so she secured herself a brand-new Isuzu D-Max Ute worth $60,000 in the process – just in time to learn how to drive.

Bunbury Golf Club General Manager Des Shearer was at the course early, setting up the camera on the ‘watering hole’ – part of the insurance policy for having a car on the line – and witnessed Chloe’s amazing feat on the club's composite course 17th hole, her eighth hole of the day.

“I walked around and said, I really don’t want it to go off this morning; I’d like it to be around two or three o’clock when we’ve got the hospitality, the watering hole DJ going full tilt,” Shearer said. “And you wouldn’t believe it, the very next hit, I’m standing there as Chloe strikes this left-handed shot straight at it.

“It was rolling through a couple of shadows on the green, you could see it, and then it disappeared, and then you could see it again, and it disappeared.”

Shearer raced down to the hole to hopefully confirm the news any golfer dreams of, grabbing his phone when arrived at the putting surface because the yellow and red Srixon was nowhere to be seen. Word reaching back to the tee leading Chloe to sprint to retrieve her ball from the bottom of the cup. And, as expected, celebrate ecstatically.

“A 16-year-old girl, obviously looking forward to getting her license, she went and sat in the car for an hour after her round,” South West Isuzu Managing Director Darren Sprigg added.
