Let me start by saying that I'm not the biggest Rory fan. I don't know, the whole LIV thing, spearheading the "Signature" event business, this TGL thing, meh. When he does do interviews, the constant use of the word "UM", instead of pausing and forming a thought before he speaks (he's not the only one).

Anyway, now he's skipped out on speaking to the media, and basically pissed in their cornflakes, for the last six rounds in Majors up until today (Colin Morikawa says thanks). I didn't see it live, I've just read a few articles and the all concur, WTF?

Wouldn't be neat to see him show up tomorrow after his round, only to be met with blank stares.

Just wanted to rant, thanks.

I hated when the PGA anointed him spokesman when all the LIV stuff was going down.

Did the Amanda thing really happen?

I expect a divorce announcement within the next several weeks

Rory is an emotional ****. I enjoyed watching him win the Masters because it looked like he would have given anything to do so. That said. He's a turd.

Rory's problem is he seems to think he can have it both ways.

When it's convenient for him he wants to use the media to push his agenda, promote his latest venture, etc etc.

But when things get rocky like if he's going through a divorce, playing poorly, using a nonconforming driver, etc etc he wants nothing to do with the media and plays the victim card.

It doesn't work that way. You can't be propped up as the Tour's golden child using the media as your platform then duck the media and bad mouth them when you're not happy.

No not all

I don't have a problem with what he says. I have a problem with the fact that when it benefits him he's the first one to find a camera and a mic to talk into. He sure doesn't have a problem talking smack into the Netflix cameras.

But as soon as it's not all rainbows and unicorns he ducks everyone and wants to complain and blame the media. He also doesn't mind throwing out his daughter as an excuse with I think is complete BS.

This. Something is weighing him down.

Maybe he's disappointed and sad that Monahan is leaving his post as PGAT commissioner.

I just read Rory is moving back to Europe. So, definitely a woman problem.

Rory is building a house near London to help him with golf and traveling. I think he will still have a residence in Florida as well.
