Hole in one putts blind man into record books

BLIND golfer Ron Tomlinson proved a real driving force when he hit his first hole in one before being named blind player of the year.

The 57-year-old, from Essex, hit the perfect shot on a par three hole to become one of only a handful of blind players to record the dream score.

Celebrations were already in full swing after his tee shot success on the West Essex golf course in Chingford last week.
