26 year-old golfer gets hole in one: Wins new BMW M4

BMW gave away a new 2015 M4 Coupe to a lucky 26 year old professional golfer. What did he do to win the performance M4?

Every golfer’s dream is to get a hole-in-one, but 26 year old Andrew Johnston got a whole lot more. Johnston who is from England, was literally jumping for joy after winning a top-of-the-range 2015 BMW M4 performance coupe at the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth, England yesterday.
The 26-year-old Englishman, nicknamed “Beef”, hit a seven-iron on the 10th hole at Wentworth’s iconic West Course and got a new M4 from BMW.

The 2015 BMW M4 performance Coupe comes with a price tag of 106,500 euros, topping the 168 bottles of champagne by a huge margin. Needless to say, Johnson was incredibly happy with his new performance coupe.
