The Englishman, playing the 172 yard ninth hole, pitched his ball just short of the pin with a five iron, it bounced up and back creating topspin, and then jumped in!

Watch the incredible hole-in-one below:

The par-3 ninth was Eddie's ninth of the day after starting on the 1st, he went out in three under par with a birdie on seven as well as the ace.

He then birdied the 10th and eagled the 11th to take the outright lead and play a five-hole stretch in six under!

Watch Pepperell eagle the 11th:

Pepperell was the interviewed on course by Sky Sports' Tim Barter where he told him he wasn't sure what happened.

"Well I thought it pitched in the hole, shot up, looked like it was going to the back of the green from where we were stood and then all of a sudden it disappeared," he said.

"My eyesight's going a little bit so I wasn't sure what happened really Tim!"

Barter then asked him how he felt about winning £20,000 for charity.

"It's awesome. I'd say I'd rather do that than win a car but that might be a lie. I'm kidding of course."

We caught up with Pepperell earlier in the week where he told us a brilliant story of his 6 iron at the Dunhill Links Championship:

Pepperell currently sits 50th in the world rankings and has had a superb year on Tour.
