Nicolas Colsaerts, Chris Hanson and Marcel Siem take part in a light-hearted golf skills challenge ahead of the Rocco Forte Open.

Nicolas Colsaerts, Marcel Siem and Chris Hanson put their beach golf skills to the test in a series of challenges ahead of the Rocco Forte Open.

Ahead of the tournament returning to the European Tour this week, live on Sky Sports, the trio took to the beach to go head to head across three unusual disciplines.

The first task was to hit a pitch shot from the sand and try to skim a ball as many times as possible across the water, before the players next attempted to hole-out from over a beach volleyball net.

Colsaerts and the players then ventured over to the pool, where they all tried to chip a ball into a rubber ring floating on the water.
