The 1D singer took a break from touring to spend a little time on the green with fellow Irishman Rory McIlroy (the No. 1 golfer in the world!), as his caddy at the Masters Par-3 Contest.

“He’s been excited to come here,” McIlroy told ESPN when asked about the One Direction singer. “He’s never been to the Masters. I caught up with him in Australia at the end of last year and he was really excited, and I said, ‘If you’re available Wednesday afternoon and you want to carry the bag for nine holes, you’re more than welcome.’

The Masters Tournament is being held at the Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia.
