Its terrific, its under lights, who would have thought it?, Pelley told Reuters. Its pretty exciting and its definitely a chance to be a little more innovative, try things a little bit different. Alex Levy earned £10,000 for wining the Hero Challenge ahead of the British Masters Whats really rewarding to see is the incredible fan engagement with the players, every player with a smile on his face and having a great time. Its much bigger than we would ever have anticipated and I think the players are equally surprised.It shows the players in a different light, which leads to people experiencing the game differently. This will not replace the traditional game and thats not the purpose. Alex Levy hits the shot of the night landing just seven feet from the hole! This is an add-on to showcase our wonderful game, the skills of our players and perhaps to get some new fans who will now not only follow these players but also perhaps come to a regular event and really enjoy it. The winner tonight has been golf.Levy, who beat Andy Sullivan, tournament host Luke Donald and Alex Noren to collect the £10,000 first prize, added: That was a lot of fun. I said to Alex Noren that I felt more pressure there than in the play-off in Germany, which is ridiculous. Alex Levy wins the Hero Challenge final against Alex Noren. The floodlit event was a new one-hole knockout contest It was amazing to see the crowds and everyone enjoying it. Golf needs something like this and it is a great idea. I would love to do more of this.Donald said: We had a great turnout and the nerves were jiggling a little bit. It was different to what we are used to. It was a lot of fun though and unique.
