Rory McIlroy probably won't be celebrating tonight after losing the British Masters to Paul Dunne, but a little boy called Henry will.

The golfer gave him his ball after potting the 15th hole on Saturday.

Look at his face!

Paul Dunne's become the first Irish winner of the British Masters since Christy O'Connor Junior in 1992.

The Wicklow native chipped in for a birdie on the 18th for a stunning final round of 61 to win by three strokes ahead of McIlroy.

However, we think Henry was the real winner in Newcastle!
