WATCH: Rory McIlroy mightily impressed as Mark Wahlberg almost sinks a hole-in-one

Tip o' the cap to you sir.

We always knew that Mark Wahlberg was an athlete masquerading as a Hollywood actor. That's not to say that he's not a competent actor but when his muscles flex at the slightest movement, it's difficult to concentrate on his movie performances.

You just know that his talents are being wasted on a movie set.

And this weekend, Wahlberg unleashed the golfing great within. Playing at the famous Pebble beach course in a PRO Am with Bubba Watson, Wahlberg struck a shot that came tantilisingly close to a hole-in-one.

And Ireland's Rory McIlroy was so impressed by the attempt that he opted to post the moment on his Facebook page.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));

These guys are good
