Rory McIlroy and wife Erica appeared to have put their marriage troubles behind them as they enjoyed the traditional Masters Par 3 contest as a family on Wednesday.
Adorable pictures show the McIlroys, with Erica and Poppy dressed in traditional white boiler caddy suits, enjoying the Augusta sunshine. Little Poppy took a starring role as she frolicked about the course, keeping dad Rory on his toes.
The four-year-old received a huge reception from the crowds as she sunk a monster of a putt on the ninth hole, much to the delight of dad Rory and pal Shane Lowry who couldn't contain their excitement.

Speaking about the day, McIlroy said: "Yeah, very cool. It’s just such a fun afternoon. Being out there with Shane (Lowry) and Tommy (Fleetwood) and their families, we’re all very, very close, so to have the kids out there and them having fun is the most important thing.
“It’s a really nice way to sort of end the preparation going into what is the serious part of the week. So it’s nice to be able to get out here and do this.”
McIlroy hopes to end his elusive hunt for the his remaining Major this weekend and finally bringing the 11 year wait to an end. The Holywood native tees off at 6.12pm GMT on Thursday, April 10.
