A Dublin teenager has won $50,000 after finishing in the top 100 at a gaming competition.
Dubliner Joshua Juliano, who is 17 years-old, is known online as "lolb0om" was taking part stateside in the Fortnite World Cup.
He placed 58th out of 100 gamers competing to win cash prizes.
Only 100 players out of a total of forty million made the cut to the play at the Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens this weekend.
The young lad was guaranteed $50,000 just for reaching this stage, but was setting his sights on the top prize of $3 million.
The top spot was claimed by Kyle Giersdorf, a 16-year-old from Pennsylvania in the US.
The second, third and fourth placed players also became millionaires.
This was the biggest e-sports event in history, and there was a $30 million prize fund awarded to players across the entire weekend.
