Liverpool star Conor Bradley described his fellow Northern Ireland man Rory McIlroy as a "massive inspiration" following the golfer's Masters triumph at Augusta.
"What Rory did last week was so special. I was watching it myself and it was just unbelievable," Bradley told BBC Sport NI.
"I'm really proud of him and I'm sure everyone back home has the same feeling."
Bradley is available again for Liverpool after a spell out because of injury and is set to help the Anfield giants complete their Premier League triumph in the coming weeks.
"It's been a frustrating year for me with injuries but I'm really happy to be back with the team and hopefully help bring the Premier League home," he added.
