Rory McIlroy to return the favor, sing on stage with One Direction

Can you shank a note?
It didn't go particularly well when One Direction member Niall Horan stepped off the stage and out of his comfort zone to carry the clubs for Rory McIlroy at the Masters par-3 contest.
The celebrity caddy became a bit of a sideshow, flubbing his opportunity off the tee into the drink before taking a spill as he followed his golfer into a mid-round interview.
Undeterred by his pal's failure though, McIlroy will apparently pony up and do the same.
