Rory McIlroy has won the European Tour's ‘Player of the Month’ award for the third time this year.
The world number one claimed the fourth major title of his career in August by winning the US PGA Championship.
It's the third time he's won the award in four months, an achievement which has been matched just twice before: Ian Woosnam did it in 1987, as did Henrik Stenson last year.
McIlroy tees up at the FedEx Cup later this evening, and if he can claim the top prize like he did in Atlanta, the Northern Irish player looks set to top the golfing money list.
But prize money isn’t the most intriguing reward on offer – with one golf tournament going out of this world to tempt the players.
The first golfer to shoot a hole-in-one on the par three 15th hole at a European Tour event in the Netherlands will win a trip to space.
Not all the players are keen, though - including Europe's Ryder Cup-winning captain and double major-winner José María Olazábal.
