A talented toddler who has already been playing golf half his life has been hailed the next Rory McIlroy because of his exceptional golfing technique.

George Hughes in Wigan, Greater Manchester can already drive, pitch and putt the ball despite only celebrating his third birthday last month.

His longest shot to date is 100 yards and earlier this year he completed an entire hole for the first time in 11 shots.

The little lad regularly takes to the course with his own set of clubs and a tiny glove but he can't wear golf shoes or clothing yet as no brand make them in his size.
