“F**K Rory”: Rory McIlroy Gets Brutally Daggered by Former Ryder Cup Comrade, Taunting His ‘Selfish’ PGA Tour Legacy

Everyone has a price. Even Rory McIlroy. If you think he is above the ethical standards of the rank-and-file, his former teammate says the joke is on you. The Northern Irish golfer’s Ryder Cup comrade claims McIlroy has vested interests in the Tour because he wants to “preserve his revenue streams.” As per the LIV Golf Pro, McIlroy’s high road leads to the same destination as the LIV Golfers’ – his bank.

Rory McIlroy emerged as the biggest backer of the PGA Tour since LIV Golf posed an existential threat. Hailed as the savior of the Tour, and by extension the game of golf, the 24-time PGA tour winner is seen as a hero by many who could steer the ship to a coast in times of a hurricane. But his former peer won’t have any of it.

Blasting the Northern Irishman for his affected superiority, his former Ryder Cup teammate said, “F**k Rory. I’m so sick of hearing about how he’s some kind of hero who is saving golf. He’s bought and paid for like everybody else, it’s just that his money is coming from the other side.” Alan Shipnuck quotes one of his former teammates in his book, LIV and Let Die. The LIV Golfer, however, spoke on condition of anonymity.

Taking it a notch further, the European pro said that the Tour and McIlroy were both complicit in backdoor negotiations. PGA Tour signed a landmark deal with Whoop, that allowed golfers’ biometric data to be synced with the most elevated moments on the course. However, McIlroy’s detractor claimed the four-time Major winner “was given a $10 million equity stake that is now worth $200 million.”
