Antrim's Neil McManus takes on the hurling-golf challenge at The Open in Portrush.

Antrim hurler Neil McManus was a guest on Sky Sports this morning when he took a unique hurling-golf challenge at The Open in Portrush.

After giving viewers an insight into what hurling is all about, he used a hurl rather than a golf club to drive the ball an impressive 147 yards.

Well done Neil!
