Irish golf ace Brendan Lawlor meets Prince Harry and gives Royal a swing lesson

Irish golf ace Brendan Lawlor helped Prince Harry with his swing as golfing royalty met actual royalty.

Dundalk man Lawlor is the world number one when it comes to disability golf and was the Invictus Games to promote the sport.

And as one of the biggest names of the game, Lawlor was given the chance to meet Prince Harry.

The royal has been a consistent supporter of the Invictus Games and was again in attendance for 2022.

And Lawlor was in attendance as ambassador for the International Sports Promotion Society and said it was an 'honour' to meet the Duke of Sussex.

Lawlor got a chance to talk all things disability golf and kept a watchful eye over Harry's swing with the Prince hit a shot onto the centre of the green on the simulator.

Posting on social media, Lawlor said: "Incredible to attend the @WeAreInvictus and have the honour of meeting the Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex.

"To share my story and talk to him about growing the exposure of disability golf was very special. Proud to represent @ISPSHanda& see all their work around the Invictus Games."

And there were a number of well wishes sent Brendan's way with one social media user saying: "Congrats on meeting him."

While another said: "Nice job instructing him."

And another added: "Hope y'all had fun"
