A Norfolk golfer dubbed 'Super Simon' has completed a historic sporting feat.
Simon Chaney was all smiles when he recorded not one but TWO holes-in-one within 24 hours.
The 46-year-old from North Elmham bagged an ace during the Saturday medal competition at Dereham Golf Club last weekend.
A superb 132-yard wedge from the tee on Dereham's 12th hole ending with the ball in the bottom of the cup.
Simon said: "It’s a little bit surreal.
“The guys standing on the 13th tee said it hit the flag, landed about 4ft behind it and just spun back in the hole."

But for Super Simon, one hole-in-one wasn't enough.
Celebrating his ace with another round the day later, the purchasing manager sunk another 160-yard shot on the 17th hole.
The golfer who plays off a 1.4 handicap added: “It was playing quite short but it was very windy, blowing left to right straight across the hole.
“I hit a knockdown 8-iron and just flushed it straight into the hole.”
Golfing tradition dictates that those lucky enough to make an ace have to buy a round of celebratory drinks in the clubhouse.
But Chaney said: “Fortunately I’ve got some insurance to pay the bar bill! Golf insurance that covers you for holes-in-one in official club competitions.”
