TALENT must run in the family judging by a spree of hole-in-ones at Market Rasen & District Golf Club.

Both Graham Dolan and daughter Charlotte Robinson have been jumping for joy on the course recently after ace tee shots.

Dolan, 65, found the cup with a seven wood on the 190-yard par-three 14th – the same hole on which he achieved a hole-in-one 15 years ago.

And Robinson, 33, was playing alongside her mother, June, in the club's Tri-Am/Am event when she bagged her first ace, on the 135-yard par-three 5th using a nine wood. She too has gone close before on the same hole.

She said: "It was quite special for me because I was playing with my mum.

"I hit it and the ball went straight towards the flag.

"Our playing partners thought it was in but I didn't believe them.

"Once we found out there was some jumping up and down and a few tears.

"I'd come close before on the same hole, to within an inch or two, so it was nice to finally do it – and to do it in a big event."

Dolan was left stunned after bagging an ace at the same hole he found in one shot 18 years ago.

He said: "It came completely out of the blue.

"To be honest, I've never really known the best shot to play on that hole.

"But I hit a fade and the ball just skipped away from a bunker on the left, hit the pin and dropped in."
