Silvermere Golf Club professional Chris Gane is set to rub shoulders with golfing royalty after being handed a slot in the BMW PGA Championships at Wentworth later this month.
The 40-year-old, a coach at the Cobham club, will line-up alongside the likes of world number one and defending champion Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose and US Open champion Martin Kymer on May 21.
Gane, who has two Challenge Tour titles to his name, hit a career high world ranking of 146 in 2002 and has played more than 120 European Tour events, but has featured in only 14 events at that level in the past four years.
