Having also won the EDGA Cazoo Open, Horan was left extremely emotional when he embraced Lawlor after the event and when he gave his thoughts to the media.
Modest! Golf aim to form relationships with players and events in order to promote inclusivity and higher participation in the game.
Horan has also worked with 'Drive Chip Putt' events in America as well in order to inspire the next generation of youngsters to pick up the game of golf.
"I've sung in front of thousands of people, performed concerts all around the world, but when you hear your name called out on the first tee at Wentworth, and you step out in front of that crowd onto the tee box...it's nerve-wracking!" said Horan when he confirmed his place at the Pro-Am.
