‘I’ve Never Been Big a Fan’: With History Beckoning, Rory McIlroy Disturbed by Inconsiderate Element at $9,000,000 PGA Tour Event

The RBC Canadian Open teed off on Thursday, June 8 at Oakdale Golf & Country Club in Toronto. It started as a field of 156 players competing for $9 million, but now only 75 remain. Out of 75 players, one who is looking forward to making history while lurking at the crowded top of the leaderboard is Rory McIlroy.

While McIlroy looks forward to his historic win at Oakdale, he shared what distracted him the most during his round on Saturday.

Saturday was a good day for the Irish golfer. He shot a bogey-free round and hit six birdies to finish 6 under 66 and get tied for 2nd place. The golfer is in a pretty crowded spot, as five other golfers alongside him are tied for second place with the same score.

During his post-round interview, a moderator asked the former world’s top-ranked golfer whether he was distracted by the drone at the 18th hole today. To which he replied affirmatively and said, “Yeah, I’ve never been a big fan of that drone.”
