Kent golfer sets Britan's longest hole-in-one record

A Kent fishmonger claims to have set a new record for Britain's longest ever hole-in-one, after his tee shot measured 408-yard, par four.

Peter Vickerman, a regular golfer for 15 years, beat the existing record of 393-yards on the seventh hole, set in West Lancashire in 1972.

Sarah Saunders, from Mr Vickerman's home course Littlestone Golf Club, said that despite his impressive win, he was being "very humble indeed".
