A HEREFORD golfer will have no excuse for missing his next tee-time after winning a limited-edition BOSS watch for achieving a hole-in-one.

Andy Morrison, 49, scored his ace on the 210-yard, par-three fifth at Herefordshire GC, and the 16-handicapper was rewarded with membership of the exclusive BOSS Watches H1Club and a specially-commissioned, commemorative timepiece.

The luxury German brand has pledged to reward club golfers with an exclusive watch for every hole-in-one recorded during a club competition in 2015, after giving away more than £1m-worth of limited-edition timepieces since its launch in 2013 - and Morrison is among the latest to achieve the feat this year.

The scheme is open to any golfer whose club uses HowDidiDo - a free-to-use, web-based social network for golfers - and anybody playing in official club competitions is eligible. Currently, more than 1,800 clubs use the website.

Stephen Brydon, commercial director for MGS Distribution, the official licenced UK distributor for BOSS Watches, said: "Well done to Andy for accomplishing one of golf's most elusive feats.

"For most amateur golfers, a hole-in-one is as memorable as winning The Masters would be to a professional.

"We want to ensure they have something tangible by which to remember the day, other than an expensive bar bill."
