Ant and Dec will show off their skills at this month's Golf Live event

Ant and Dec

Britain's Got Talent presenters Ant and Dec will put their golfing talent to the test in front of a packed house at this month's Golf Live and Celebrity Cup at Celtic Manor.

The double act will join Ryder Cup legend Colin Montgomerie in the main theatre at 3pm on Saturday 11 May and take part in a 'nearest the pin' and 'straightest drive' competition.

Originally asked to present the trophy the following Sunday, Ant and Dec are unable to commit as they have been nominated for two BAFTA awards that evening.

Instead, they will put their golfing skills on the line and attend the fundraising Celebrity Gala Dinner at Celtic Manor that Saturday night.

2010 Ryder Cup winning captain Montgomerie said: "We're delighted that Ant and Dec are coming back to Celtic Manor to join in the fun, and especially pleased they will now be there in the evening to support The Elizabeth Montgomerie Foundation.

"Alongside the 24 celebrities representing their countries, it's going to be a great day and a truly entertaining evening."

Ant and Dec will be joined by the likes of Sir Steve Redgrave, Rob Brydon, Kenny Dalglish and Martin O'Neill at Britain's only golf and lifestyle weekend.

The public will also be able to take part in the nearest the pin and straight drive challenges as well as get themselves fitted for the latest golfing equipment from the leading brands.

To account for the change in Ant and Dec's schedule, anyone who has already purchased general admission tickets for the Sunday of the event will be given free access to Saturday as well.

Tickets for Golf Live and The Celebrity Cup start from £15 and gala dinner tickets are available from £150.
