Formula One legend David Coulthard has proved his skills do not just lie in motor racing, by landing the fastest ever hole-in-one.

Professional golfer Jake Shepherd hit a ball at 178mph towards the Mercedes that David was driving, which was moving at a rate of 120mph. The racing driver caught it between the seats of the SLS AMG Roadster.

Speaking about the astonishing catch, Coulthard said, “The only way to track the ball was to keep your eyes on it all the time: It’s a real adrenaline rush but it’s not the most comfortable thing to do because for a moment, you’re not watching the road!

He continued: “I was as happy as I’ve ever been winning a Grand Prix because I was so surprised quite frankly that it went in, and went in so solidly!”

The amazing feat was independently verified by a Guinness World Record adjudicator who confirmed the achievement secured the title of furthest golf shot caught in a moving car.
