Niall Horan plays Augusta golf course in support of young players

Niall Horan had a taste of the Drive, Chip and Putt Challenge (DCP Challenge) at Augusta National in Georgia (see below).

The Irish singer-songwriter is behind the DCP Challenge's mission, which is to give kids from the ages of 7 - 15, the chance to play golf at the home of the Masters.

The competition finals take place at Augusta National following regional qualifiers.

Horan said: "I think DCP is the best thing to happen to golf in a long time.

"To have a championship with the finals at Augusta National is incredible. This is the way that we are going to get people into the game of golf.

"Augusta have really stepped it up here, taken it to a different level and come up with this initiative that is going to change the game for the better, hopefully."
