TONIGHT ` SHE FOUGHT ALL HER LIFE FOR WORKING PEOPLE, BUT ONE BATTLE PROVED TOO MUCH. TRIBUTES FLOW FOR HELEN KELLY. GABLE TOSTEE'S DEFENCE WRAPS UP, SAYING WARRIENA WRIGHT'S DEATH WAS THE RESULT OF HER OWN IRRATIONAL BEHAVIOUR. DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF TONIGHT, WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. WELLINGTON CITY'S PLANNING A PUBLIC SERVICE FOR LONGTIME UNION ACTIVIST HELEN KELLY, WHO DIED LAST NIGHT AFTER A LONG BATTLE WITH LUNG CANCER. THE FORMER HEAD OF THE CTU WAS LOVED AND RESPECTED AS A TIRELESS CAMPAIGNER FOR WORKING PEOPLE. HER PASSING HAS PROMPTED A FLOOD OF TRIBUTES. THIS FROM RYAN BOSWELL. THE MOMENT HELEN KELLY KNEW NZ'S HEALTH AND SAFETY LAWS WERE BROKEN. IF WE DIDN'T HAVE HER, JUST` YOU'D BE 'PIKE WHO'? YOU WOULDN'T EVEN` IT WOULD LONG BEEN OUT OF THE NEWS. THE FAMILIES OF THE 29 MEN KILLED IN THE PIKE RIVER MINE FOREVER THANKFUL TO THE UNION LEADER WHO FOUGHT FOR CHANGE ACROSS ALL INDUSTRIES AND FORGED LIFE-LONG FRIENDSHIPS. WE TRY AND SAY THANK YOU ALL THE TIME. SHE GOES, 'IT'S NOTHING, MATE. IT'S NOTHING.' SHE MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE IT'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT. LABOUR LEADER ANDREW LITTLE SPENT YEARS ON THE PICKET LINE WITH HER. THE THING ABOUT HELEN, OF COURSE ` NOT ONLY WAS SHE FEARLESS, SHE WAS TOTALLY SELFLESS. THIS WASN'T ABOUT HER; IT WAS ABOUT THE PEOPLE SHE WAS SPEAKING FOR. WE'LL REMEMBER HER ALWAYS AS BEING THIS WOMAN WHO WOULD PUT HERSELF RIGHT OUT THERE FOR THE MOST VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES, FOR WORKERS. THE NOW HEAD OF THE COUNCIL OF TRADE UNIONS SAYS HELEN KELLY NEVER SLOWED DOWN. I'D CALL HER OFTEN, AND SHE'D BE STANDING ON A PICKET LINE WITH MEAT WORKERS OR WITH SOMEBODY ELSE AT SORT OF 5AM IN THE MORNING OR EARLIER ALL THROUGH THE WEEK AND THE WEEKENDS. RESPECTED ACROSS THE POLITICAL DIVIDE, JOHN KEY TWEETING ` WHILE THE FORMER PRIME MINISTER DESCRIBED HER A LONG-TIME ADVOCATE FOR WORKERS' RIGHTS. MANY HOPING THAT'S NOT FORGOTTEN. I THINK IT DOES LEAVE AN OBLIGATION ON THE REST OF US TO CARRY THAT WORK ON, TO SEE THAT THROUGH AND TO LIVE OUT THE LEGACY THAT IS HELEN KELLY. THOUSANDS, MANY OF THOSE WHO HELEN KELLY HELPED, ARE EXPECTED TO TRAVEL TO WELLINGTON TO PAY TRIBUTE, THE CITY'S MAYOR OFFERING TO HOST A PUBLIC MEMORIAL. WE JUST LOVE HELEN, MATE. YOU KNOW, SHE'S AN AMAZING, AMAZING KIWI, SHE'S A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, AND IT'S ALMOST LIKE BEING IN THE PRESENCE OF AN ANGEL. HER FAMILY AND HER THOUSANDS OF MATES NOW PREPARING TO SAY THEIR FINAL GOODBYES. RYAN BOSWELL, 1 NEWS. THE JURY IN THE TRIAL OF THE GOLD COAST MAN ACCUSED OF KILLING HIS KIWI TINDER DATE HAS BEEN TOLD GABLE TOSTEE FORCED WARRIENA WRIGHT ON TO THE 14TH FLOOR BALCONY FOR THEIR 'SAFETY'. THE DEFENCE SAYS TOSTEE'S BEEN PORTRAYED AS A CARTOONISH VILLAIN, WHEN HE WAS ONLY ACTING IN SELF DEFENCE. HERE'S AUSTRALIA CORRESPONDENT RUTH WYNN=WILLIAMS. THE JURY HAS NOW BEEN DISMISSED FOR THE WEEKEND. THE SIX MEN AND SIX WOMEN WILL RETURN ON MONDAY FOR THE JUDGE'S CLOSING ADDRESS. GABLE TOSTEE CHOSE NOT TO GIVE TESTIMONY TODAY IN HIS OWN DEFENCE. HIS LAWYER CALLED NO WITNESSES AND, IN SUMMING UP, LABELLED ASPECTS OF THE CROWN CASE AS WEAK AS YOU WILL SEE. HE URGED THE JURY TO REMEMBER THAT GABLE TOSTEE IS A REAL PERSON AND SAID IN THE HOURS FOLLOWING WRIGHT'S DEATH, THE MAN (30) WAS ACTING OUT OF SHOCK. GABLE TOSTEE HAS PLEADED NOT GUILTY. HIS LAWYERS SAY HE FORCED WARRIENA WRIGHT OUT ON TO THE BALCONY IN SELF-DEFENCE. THE CROWN CASE IS THAT HE INTIMIDATED AND THREATENED THE NZ WOMAN TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT SHE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO ATTEMPT THE DANGEROUS ESCAPE THAT CAUSED HER DEATH. NZER DAME LOWELL GODDARD IS AT THE CENTRE OF FRESH CONTROVERSY OVER HER TIME HEADING A HIGH-PROFILE SEX ABUSE INQUIRY IN THE UK. THE FORMER HIGH COURT JUDGE IS VIGOROUSLY DENYING ALLEGATIONS SHE MADE DEROGATORY REMARKS AND IS THREATENING LEGAL ACTION AGAINST THE UK PAPER THAT PUBLISHED THEM. POLITICAL REPORTER ANDREA VANCE HAS MORE. DAME LOWELL GODDARD TOOK THE JOB NO ONE WANTED ` INVESTIGATING SHOCKING ALLEGATIONS ABOUT A PAEDOPHILE RING AT WESTMINSTER IN THE 1980S. IT FEELS LIKE A HUGE HONOUR, BUT ALSO IT'S A VERY BIG COMMITMENT. NOW DAME LOWELL IS FACING CLAIMS THAT SHE MADE DEROGATORY REMARKS DURING HER TIME IN CHARGE OF THE TROUBLED CHILD SEX ABUSE INQUIRY. SHE IS STRONGLY DENYING THE ALLEGATIONS AND IS TAKING ADVICE FROM TOP LONDON LAWYERS CARTER RUCK. IN A STATEMENT SHE SAID ` DAME LOWELL WAS THE THIRD PERSON TO HEAD UP THE CONTROVERSIAL INQUIRY. BRITISH OFFICIALS WANTED SOMEONE UNCONNECTED TO THE BRITISH ARISTOCRACY. CRUCIALLY, SHE WILL BE AS REMOVED AS POSSIBLE FROM THE ORGANISATIONS AND INSTITUTIONS THAT MIGHT BECOME THE FOCUS OF THE INQUIRY. SHE HAD A NEARLY 40-YEAR CAREER THAT INCLUDED BECOMING THE FIRST WOMAN TO CHAIR THE INDEPENDENT POLICE CONDUCT AUTHORITY. HER $640,000 A YEAR SALARY CAME WITH PERKS WORTH $200,000 AND RAISED EYEBROWS IN BRITAIN. IT WILL BE AN ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE TASK. IN THE END, IT PROVED TOO GREAT A TASK, AND 16 MONTHS LATER, SHE STEPPED DOWN, CREATING ANOTHER MEDIA STORM. AT THE TIME, DAME LOWELL'S REASONS FOR RESIGNING WEREN'T MADE PUBLIC. BUT IN TODAY'S STATEMENT, SHE SAYS SHE EXPLAINED THEM TO HOME SECRETARY AMBER RUDD AND A PARLIAMENTARY SELECT COMMITTEE. DAME LOWELL RESIGNED AS A HIGH COURT JUDGE LAST YEAR AND NEITHER ATTORNEY-GENERAL CHRIS FINLAYSON NOR THE JUDICIARY WOULD COMMENT. ANDREA VANCE, 1 NEWS. A CHEMICAL SPILL'S FORCED ROAD CLOSURES IN THE AUCKLAND SUBURB OF PENROSE, AS EMERGENCY SERVICES WORK TO CONTAIN THE SUBSTANCE. CALCIUM CARBIDE LEAKED FROM A GAS COMPANY ON GREAT SOUTH RD, WITH CONCERNS IT COULD FORM AN EXPLOSIVE GAS IF MIXED WITH WATER. GAS DETECTORS WERE USED TO MONITOR LEVELS, AND THE WATER SUPPLY CUT OFF TO AVOID REACTION. DONALD TRUMP'S CAMPAIGN SEEMS TO BE GOING FROM BAD TO WORSE AS EVEN MORE WOMEN COME FORWARD ACCUSING HIM OF SEXUAL ASSAULT. BUT THE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE BRUSHES IT ALL ASIDE AS A CONSPIRACY TO KEEP HIM FROM THE WHITE HOUSE. CHANNEL NINE'S ROBERT PENFOLD WITH THIS. EVEN MORE WOMEN ARE NOW COMING FORWARD AS THE ACCUSATIONS OF SEXUAL ASSAULTS CONTINUED TO REIGN DOWN ON DONALD TRUMP, THROWING THE CANDIDATE AND HIS CAMPAIGN INTO A NEAR STATE OF PANIC. THESE PEOPLE ARE HORRIBLE PEOPLE. THEY ARE HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE LIARS. THE LATEST WOMAN TO SPEAK OUT, NATASHA STOYNOFF, A JOURNALIST WHO WENT TO TRUMP'S ESTATE IN FLORIDA TO INTERVIEW HIM AND HIS PREGNANT WIFE MELANIA ABOUT THEIR FIRST YEAR OF MARRIAGE. AT A RALLY, HE DIDN'T HOLD BACK, REALISING THIS GROWING STORM IS NOW MORE THAN ENOUGH TO DESTROY HIS PRESIDENTIAL ASPIRATIONS. THESE VICIOUS CLAIMS ABOUT ME OF INAPPROPRIATE CONDUCT WITH WOMEN ARE TOTALLY AND ABSOLUTELY FALSE. FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA SAID SHE FELT OBLIGED TO SPEAK UP, EXPLAINING, EMOTIONALLY, OF HER UTTER SHOCK HEARING TRUMP DENIGRATING WOMEN. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I'M SAYING THAT A CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES HAS BRAGGED ABOUT SEXUALLY ASSAULTING WOMEN, AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT I` I CAN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT THIS. IT HAS SHAKEN ME TO MY CORE IN A WAY THAT I COULDN'T HAVE PREDICTED. BEFORE LEAVING THE STAGE, TRUMP TURNED ON NATASHA STOYNOFF AGAIN, QUITE OBVIOUSLY SUGGESTING SHE HAD TO BE LYING BECAUSE SHE WASN'T ATTRACTIVE ENOUGH FOR HIM TO BE INTERESTED. YOU TAKE A LOOK, LOOK AT HER, LOOK AT HER WORDS, YOU TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK. I DON'T THINK SO. I DON'T THINK SO. A YEAR-LONG MOURNING PERIOD'S BEEN DECLARED IN THAILAND FOLLOWING THE DEATH OF KING BHUMIBOL ADULYADEJ. TENS OF THOUSANDS HAVE LINED THE STREETS OF BANGKOK TO TAKE PART IN THE FIRST RITUALS OF THE MOURNING PERIOD, WITH THE KING'S BODY MOVED TO A TEMPLE IN THE GRAND PALACE. KING BHUMIBOL (88) WAS THE WORLD'S LONGEST SERVING MONARCH, BECOMING AN ICON OF STABILITY. HIS SON, CROWN PRINCE MAHA VAJIRALONGKORN, IS EXPECTED TO TAKE THE THRONE. THE KING'S DEATH IS ALSO BEING FELT HERE IN NZ. MOURNERS GATHERING AT THIS TEMPLE IN WEST AUCKLAND TO REFLECT ON THE LEGACY OF THEIR FALLEN LEADER. THEY TOLD 1 NEWS KING BHUMIBOL WAS A MAN OF THE PEOPLE, WHO WAS UNIVERSALLY LOVED THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. HE HAD A LOVING KINDNESS AND COMPASSION. HE NEVER COMPLAINED. HE WORKED REALLY HARD. HE HELPED PEOPLE EVERYWHERE, WENT EVERYWHERE ` EVERY CORNER IN THE COUNTRY ` WENT TO HELP THE VILLAGERS. HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ARE EXPECTED AT THE TEMPLE ON SUNDAY FOR A DAY OF COMMEMORATIONS. P DEALERS SHOULD HAVE FLED THE WAIKATO TOWN OF NGARUAWAHIA BY NOW IF A THREAT FROM A LOCAL GANG LEADER IS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. TRIBAL HUK LEADER JAMIE PINK GAVE DEALERS 24 HOURS TO GET OUT OR HE'D TAKE THE LAW INTO HIS OWN HANDS. PAUL HOBBS REPORTS. NGARUAWAHIA'S INFAMOUS GANG TRIBAL HUKS WASN'T SHYING AWAY FROM OUR CAMERAS TODAY, BUT THIS WAS AS CLOSE AS WE COULD GET TO THEIR LEADER, JAMIE PINK. PINK WASN'T AFRAID OF THE PUBLIC GLARE LAST NIGHT AT A LOCAL MEETING, DELIVERING METHAMPHETAMINE, OR 'P', DEALERS AN ULTIMATUM ` YOU'VE GOT 24 HOURS TO GET OUT OF TOWN, OR WE'RE COMING AFTER YOU. WE GOT TROOPS ALL READY TO GO, AND I JUST WANT TO SAY ONE MORE THING BEFORE I GO, AND, YOU KNOW, NO MORE 'P' IN NGA. THE MEETING WAS CALLED HERE TO DEAL WITH ONGOING CRIME PROBLEMS INVOLVING YOUNGSTERS AND WHAT SOME PEOPLE, INCLUDING PINK, BELIEVE IS MOTIVATING IT. PINK'S POSTURING DRAWING BOTH CAUTION AND PRAISE FROM LOCALS. THE THOUGHTS OF THE PEOPLE WHO ARE MAKING THESE THREATS MAY OUTWARDLY BE HONOURABLE. WE DON'T CONDONE THE VIOLENCE, AND PERHAPS THERE ARE BETTER WAYS TO HANDLE THINGS. HE ALWAYS HAS THE BEST INTERESTS AT HEART. I THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEA, BECAUSE DRUGS ARE A BIG PROBLEM IN OUR SOCIETY. PINK (45) HAS HAD A CHEQUERED PAST. HE'S SEEN JAIL TIME FOR VIOLENCE AND LAST YEAR WAS FINED FOR POSSESSING CANNABIS. BUT FOR THE PAST FIVE YEARS, HE AND OTHERS HAVE BEEN MAKING SANDWICHES FOR DISADVANTAGED CHILDREN IN THE WAIKATO REGION. IS 'P' A PROBLEM IN NGARUAWAHIA? WELL, IT'S A PROBLEM EVERYWHERE. WHILE THESE WOMEN APPLAUD JAMIE PINK'S VOCAL STAND AGAINST 'P' AND ITS DEALERS, THEY DON'T THINK HIS THREATS OF VIOLENCE ARE REAL. THE EMOTION PROBABLY CAME FROM YEARS AND YEARS OF THE SAME THING HAPPENING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I THINK JAMIE GOT UP AND DID A BIT OF GRANDSTANDING LAST NIGHT AT THIS MEETING. HOT AIR OR GENUINE FRUSTRATION, THE POLICE SAY PINK SHOULD BRING ANY INFORMATION ON DRUG DEALERS TO THEM. PAUL HOBBS, 1 NEWS. FOOTAGE HAS EMERGED OF THE MOMENT A GREAT WHITE SHARK BREAKS INTO A DIVING CAGE OFF THE COAST OF MEXICO. AFTER TAKING THE BAIT FROM A BOAT ON A SHARK-WATCHING TOUR, THE 4M-LONG GREAT WHITE CRASHES INTO THE BARS OF THE CAGE. UNABLE TO SWIM BACKWARDS, IT PUSHES FORWARD, RIGHT INTO THE CAGE, WHERE THERE'S A TOURIST TRAPPED INSIDE. WOMAN GASPS MAN: JEEZ. MOMENTS LATER, THE DIVER EMERGES UNHARMED AFTER HIDING IN THE BOTTOM OF THE CAGE. IT'S NOT KNOWN WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GREAT WHITE AFTER IT ESCAPED. JUST AHEAD ` MITRE 10 RUGBY AND YOU CAN'T KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN ` OR OUT OF A COACHING JOB. SIR GORDON TIETJENS HOPES TO REPEAT HIS SEVENS SUCCESS WITH SAMOA. IT'S ALL ABOUT THE NUMBERS WITH THIS TINY DUNEDIN GOLFER, BUT THE MAIN NUMBER IS ONE. IN RUGBY NEWS, OTAGO'S MITRE 10 CUP CAMPAIGN IS BACK ON TRACK, WITH A SIGNIFICANT WIN OVER MANAWATU IN PALMERSTON NORTH TONIGHT. OTAGO SNAPPING A THREE-GAME LOSING STREAK WITH SOME ATTACKING BRILLIANCE AND HOLDING OFF A LATE COMEBACK FROM THE HOSTS TO GO AHEAD THREE TRIES TO TWO. THAT BALL STAYED IN THE FIELD OF PLAY. THIS IS GONNA BE A TRY FOR ADAM KNIGHT. HE CREATED ONE AND NOW HE'S GOT ONE HIMSELF. THE 21-14 WIN GIVES OTAGO A DECENT CHANCE OF FINISHING TOP QUALIFIERS, HEADING INTO THE PLAYOFFS NEXT WEEK. JUST ONE MONTH AFTER 'RETIRING', SIR GORDON TIETJENS HAS A NEW JOB ` HEAD COACH OF SAMOA'S SEVENS TEAM. AND WHILE HE'S LOOKING AHEAD TO TOKYO 2020, HE'S ALSO FIRED A PARTING SHOT AT HIS FORMER BOSS. JOHN MCKENZIE REPORTS. OFTEN REFERRED TO AS THE GODFATHER OF NZ SEVENS, SIR GORDON TIETJENS TODAY TOOK AIM AT HIS FORMER EMPLOYER. TO BE FAIR, THE LAST 18 MONTHS COACHING NZ, I'M LITTLE DISAPPOINTED AROUND PERHAPS THE LACK OF SUPPORT FOR OUR SEVENS PROGRAMME. TIETJENS CLEARLY UNIMPRESSED AT THE LACK OF BACKING THAT ULTIMATELY DERAILED THEIR OLYMPICS CAMPAIGN. SO JUST A MONTH AFTER WALKING AWAY, HE CLEARLY ISN'T DONE JUST YET. EVEN THOUGH I STEPPED DOWN, I DIDN'T RETIRE. TIETJENS WILL TAKE THE REINS OF SAMOA IN EARLY 2017, PUTTING HIM UP AGAINST HIS FORMER SIDE, SOMETHING LAST MONTH HE SAID HE'D NEVER DO. MY VIEWS HAVE OBVIOUSLY CHANGED A HELL OF A LOT SINCE THEN. WE CONSIDER THIS APPOINTMENT OF SIR GORDON AS A GREAT COUP FOR OUR SAMOAN RUGBY. TIETJENS WAS STILL HOT PROPERTY, KENYA AS GOOD AS ANNOUNCING THEY'D NABBED HIM, PROXIMITY TO HOME THE DECIDING FACTOR. IN THE 48 HOURS THAT I'VE BEEN IN SAMOA, I'VE BEEN VERY VERY IMPRESSED BY WHAT I'VE SEEN AND THE PEOPLE I'VE MET. SAMOA CAN BE BOTH HOT AND COLD IN SEVENS RUGBY. LAST YEAR THEY WON A LEG OF THE SEVENS CIRCUIT IN FRANCE BUT THEN FAILED TO QUALIFY FOR RIO BY LOSING TO SPAIN. ANY NATION AT ALL THAT CAN BE RESILIENT, IT'S SAMOA. AND WHILE HE'S ALREADY CIRCLED TOKYO 2020 AS A CHANCE TO FINALLY GET THAT OLYMPIC GOLD, HE ACKNOWLEDGES HE'LL NEED TIME. IT'S NOT A QUICK FIX, BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU YOU'LL SEE MASSIVE IMPROVEMENT OVER A PERIOD OF TIME. AS FOR THE MAN WHO'LL REPLACE TIETJENS IN NZ, NZ RUGBY SAY THAT SHOULD BE CONFIRMED LATER THIS MONTH. FORMER PLAYER CHAD TUORO TIPPED AS A POSSIBLE REPLACEMENT. JOHN MCKENZIE, 1 NEWS. THEY'RE ONLY A COUPLE OF WEEKS AWAY FROM OPENING THEIR BRAND-NEW MOUNTAIN BIKE PARK. NOW WORK IS RAMPING UP ON A PROPOSED FLAT WATER SPORTS FACILITY IN CHRISTCHURCH. GEORGE BERRY MET THE MAN LEADING THE CHARGE. SIX YEARS ON, THIS RED-ZONED LAND, FENCED OFF TO THE PUBLIC, COULD SOON BE TURNED BLUE AND RETURNED TO ITS PEOPLE. IT'S ABOUT REGENERATING THE EAST OF CHRISTCHURCH AND THAT AREA, PROVIDING AN AMENITY WHICH WILL DRAW PEOPLE IN AND ENJOY. THE EAST LAKE TRUST PROPOSING ONE OPTION ON HOW TO REGENERATE THE QUAKE-AFFECTED EASTERN CORRIDOR. THERE'S 450HA, AND WE'RE USING 10% OF THAT, SO THERE'S PLENTY OF ROOM FOR ALL THE OTHER PROJECTS. IT JUST SO HAPPENS THEIR PROPOSED LAKE COULD HAVE A HUGE SPORTING IMPACT. LET'S HAVE OUR CAKE AND EAT IT. LET'S HAVE A BEAUTIFUL AMENITY BUT ALSO A FLAT WATER COURSE, AND THEN NOT JUST ROWING. THE PRE-FEASIBILITY STUDY'S SET TO BEGIN IN THE COMING WEEKS. AND PUBLIC CONSULTATION EXPECTED SOME TIME BY THE END OF NEXT YEAR. THIS REPRESENTS THE MOST REALISTIC OPTION, BUT AS PART OF ANY PRE-FEASIBILITY, IT'S SENSIBLE TO LOOK AT OTHER OPTIONS. ALTHOUGH THE COST ISN'T YET KNOWN, IT SOON WILL BE. SO, CERTAINLY, WHEN IT GOES TO CONSULTATION, THERE WILL BE A FIGURE, BUT AT THIS STAGE, WE THINK THE SENSIBLE THING TO DO IS DO THE PRE-FEASIBILITY, COME UP WITH THE INDICATIVE DESIGN. HE ALSO SAYS THERE'S SEVERAL FUNDING OPTIONS. THERE WILL BE HUGE SPIN-OFFS IN TERMS OF HOTEL ACCOMMODATION AND SUPPORTING FACILITIES, BECAUSE BY THE TIME YOU HAVE REGULAR ROWING, CANOEING, WAKA AMA, TRIATHLONS, YOU COULD HAVE A PRETTY FULL FACILITY AND THOSE EVENTS PULLING THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE. THE RE-SALE OF SOME OF THE NEIGHBOURING RED ZONE COULD ALSO FIT THE BILL. GEORGE BERRY, 1 NEWS. IT'S BELIEVED TO BE A NZ GOLFING RECORD.

A HOLE-IN-ONE ON THE PAR 3 FIFTH AT DUNEDIN'S ISLAND PARK COURSE ` AN 85M UPHILL. I THOUGHT IT WAS OVER THE BACK, COS IT WAS KIND OF A LITTLE SKIMMY, BUT IN FACT IT WENT IN THE HOLE. IT WAS KIND OF HIGH. SHE JUST ENJOYS HITTING BALLS AND DOESN'T WORRY TOO MUCH ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS TO THE BALL. YOU KNOW, IF IT GETS ON THE GREEN, IT GETS ON THE GREEN. SHE'S HAPPY. IF IT GOES INTO THE ROUGH OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, SHE'S STILL HAPPY. ALONG WITH HER DAD,... HEY, I NOTICE HOW YOU'RE HITTING THE BALL SO MUCH FURTHER. WHY IS THAT?

ADDING TO THE AWESOMENESS, ANAHERA'S FIRST ACE CAME IN THE SAME YEAR AS LYDIA'S FIRST, WHICH SHE HIT AT THE RIO OLYMPICS. OH MY GOODNESS! LYDIA KO HAS DONE IT AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME IT'S A HOLE-IN-ONE. ANAHERA 13 YEARS AHEAD OF HER RIVAL IN THE HOLE-IN-ONE DEPARTMENT. IT'LL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT OTHER COMPARISONS PLAY OUT IN THE FUTURE. MARK HATHAWAY, 1 NEWS.
