Harry Ellis secured a place at next month's Open after winning the 122nd Amateur Championship in dramatic fashion at Royal St George's, beating Australian Dylan Perry in a sudden death play-off.
The 21-year-old from Meon Valley Golf Club was seemingly headed for defeat after trailing Perry by four with only five of the 36 holes remaining.
However, a bogey six on the 32nd hole by Perry was followed by further dropped shots by the Australian on the 34th, 35th and 36th as Ellis recovered to all-square to send the match to sudden death.
The pair halved the first extra hole but a double-bogey six from Perry on the second proved decisive, with Ellis claiming victory thanks to another par - his seventh in succession.
Ellis, who at 16 became the youngest winner of the English Amateur Championship in 2012, has now earned a spot at the 146th Open at Royal Birkdale as well as next year's Masters and US Open.
