It was only a matter of time.

After Rory Mcilroy's chipping practice on American TV last night, the Northern Irishman has proceeded to join the ice bucket challenge craze in the company of Tiger Woods.

With Rory and Tiger throwing a bucket of ice over each other's head, it was a little embarrassing for the Hollywood native who didn't quite manage to get up on his tip-toes enough to fully cover the 38-year old with the bucket's contents. McIlroy, however, got drenched and proceeded to nominate Wayne Rooney, 'Suits' star Meghan Markle and the 43rd President of the United States, George W. Bush (LeBron has already got to Obama, don't worry).

You can watch his effort below.
