Additional media coverage was also received when 29-year Scottish Professional Elliot Saltman, having shot a hole-in-one during the first round on Thursday, went on to achieve the same feat again during the final round. Unfortunately for Elliot both holes-in-one were on the 211-yard 17th hole, four holes too late to win the new car. None the less much of the press coverage about Elliot's achievement included missing out on the Saab, more precious column inches!
Talking to the BBC Saltman confessed not to be too disappointed at missing out on the new Saab. He picked up £29,000 in prize money for his achievement at the event along with two magnums of Champagne and a complimentary night in the presidential suite at the Celtic Manor resort.
