A PLACE In The Sun’s Laura Hamilton tried her hand on the golfing green alongside SAS Who Dares Wins star Jay Morton.
The popular Channel 4 anchor, 39, who recently split from husband Alex Goward had Jay film her as managed to get “three good shots” for the camera.
The pair were on a team of celebrities taking part in a golfing competition in honour of new film, The Phantom of the Open starring Mark Rylance.
The movie follows the story of Maurice Flitcroft who managed entry to The British Open Golf Championship Qualifying in 1976.
Laura and Jay hit the green alongside Big Brother’s Kate Lawton, Sex Education actor Alastair Petrie and retired pro golfer, Nick Doughtery.
The property expert lined up for some shots out in the rough as Jay filmed her and asked, “can I just put it on a tee?”
“Don’t think about it, just do it,” Jay told her from behind the camera.
Laura captioned the Instagram story: “And at least @jay_morton managed to film three of my best shots… the rest were rubbish.”

Their day golfing comes after she revealed her relationship broke down last month and that her and ex Alex were on “different paths” in their lives.
Laura married insurance broker Alex in 2012 – three years after they started dating.
They share two children together, eight-year-old Rocco and a daughter Tahlia, six.
In an interview with Hello! Magazine, Laura confessed: “There have been times I have been so overwhelmed with sadness.”

She said of their split: “It was a chapter of my life that I am now closing, and I have so many happy memories.
“I am very much someone who believes in focusing on the future, not having regrets, and I want to be positive for my children.”
Candidly addressing the reason for the split, she told the publication: “It was a decision we both came to. We have an enormous amount of respect for each other, but we are now on different paths.
“At the point it was announced, we’d already overcome a lot of difficult times.
“But I am lucky that we have the relationship and respect for each other that we have, and our children’s happiness will always be our priority.”
After leaving the military in 2018, Jay shot to fame on the Channel 4 show SAS: Who Dares Wins alongside Ant Middleton, Jason Fox, Mark Billingham and Ollie Ollerton.
