HOLLYWOOD superstar Bill Murray has revealed that he has been practicing his putting ever since JP McManus beat him "resoundingly" on the fairways.

The Oscar-nominated actor is one of the star attractions at this year's JP McManus Pro-Am which is just under way in Adare Manor.

He was part of a team led by Luke Donald, and played alongside singer Niall Horan  and actor Jamie Dornan.

Speaking to Limerick Live, Bill - who has been spotted on several occasions in the city in the past fortnight  - said: "I played golf with JP McManus and he beat me resoundingly, so I've been practicing ever since."

"My handicap today will be if I run into any relatives of mine. That will be the big problem. Or if I start drinking," he laughed.

The Groundhog Day and Caddyshack actor was also at Croke Park yesterday, where he witnessed Limerick's hurlers advance to the All-Ireland final at the expense of Galway.

"If they hadn't won it would have been a sad say around here, so I'm glad everyone is in a smiley bubbly mood," he said to cheers from those gathered.
