Open hero Shane Lowry paid a special visit to Dublin's Temple Street Children's Hospital this morning - with the famous Claret Jug in hand.
The Offaly man has continued his lap of honour following his major win at Royal Portrush last Sunday as put smiles on the faces of some of the young patients.
Lowry, 32, was joined by his wife Wendy as they were pictured with staff as well as some of the young children from the hospital during the heartwarming visit.
The hospital, located in the heart of the capital, is the national centre for paediatric healthcare and cares for over 150,000 sick children every year.
In a tweet, Temple Street thanked the newly crowned Irish sporting hero: "We were delighted to welcome our wonderful friends
Shane Lowry and Wendy to our special hospital this morning!
"Thank you Shane and Wendy for putting smiles on our little patients and amazing staff!".
Lowry's win has bagged him at least €1.7 million in prize money, but he's expected to earn a lot more than that in the next few months as his stock sky rockets both on and off the fairways.
It's already been an emotional week for the Clara native, who was filmed belting out Irish ballads like 'Grace' and 'The Fields of Athenry' just hours after stepping off the 18th green with the illustrious Claret Jug.
But the party didn't stop there as he savoured the triumph with friends and family in Dublin's Boar's Head on Monday before enjoying a momentous homecoming in Clara itself as thousand's flocked to the Offaly village to welcome him home.
Speaking at the homecoming, Lowry says he's overwhelmed by the past few days and the support he's received: "“It’s just incredible. I suppose I didn’t know if I was good enough to ever win something like this.
“I didn’t think I’d ever be having something like this in Clara.
“I’m so overwhelmed at the minute. I can’t believe what’s going on, it’s been a crazy few days.”
