Records smashed with aces high, eagles, birdie barrages, flying form and more. EuropeanTour.com recaps a glittering Moving Day at the KLM Open.

41- Holes-in-one in The 2015 Race to Dubai now after aces from Magnus A Carlsson and Wade Ormsby on Saturday at Kennemer G&CC

0- Never have more holes-in-one been made in a single European Tour season with 2015 now surpassing the previous record of 39 set in 2006

227- Yardage of the eighth hole, where Carlsson made his hole-in-one with a three iron

169- Yardage of the 11th hole for Moving Day, where Ormsby used seven iron to make his slam dunk

16- Under par leads the way heading into Sunday as Rafa Cabrera-Bello and Lee Slattery both tied the lowest 54-hole score in tournament history

6- Birdies, one eagle, one bogey and one par for Cabrera-Bello in his blistering front nine 29

34- Shots under par Slattery is for his last eight rounds on The European Tour. All have been in the 60s (68-66-67-67-69-66-65-63).
