@drewharvie Yeah, can’t wait for him to play it safe and shoot a bogey-free 70 while it’s raining birdies all around him. Go on to finish T8. Authentic Rory McIlroy experience.

This is all part of the Rory McIlroy experience, no need to worry

@MattVincenziPGA And that’s just this week! The song and dance that’s been going on for the past 12 months has been utter cringe nonsense.

I keep forgetting if Rory has a green jacket or not. Thankfully, he's pointed it out no less than 100 times this week.

@countto1011 @UsedGolfFacts Tom Watson and Arnold Palmer don’t have that. Still light years ahead of the leprechaun in greatness.

@UsedGolfFacts Incredibly important to remember he is 1 of 6 human beings ever to win the career grand slam

Incredibly important to remember that Rory is a generational choker.

@britinreno @UsedGolfFacts That’s the CAREER Grand Slam. No one has won the modern iteration of the golf grand slam… Do I get to call you a dumb fuck?

@UsedGolfFacts Correct that's why he's the only European to ever win the Grand Slam you dumb fuck

@NTPGolf66 @UsedGolfFacts Greg Norman was in contention a lot. Certainly earned his reputation though…

@UsedGolfFacts Incredibly important to remember that the only players who choke are the ones in contention.

@OldRowGolf That answer’s got a tough competition for that prize considering who gave it…

They’re calling it the worst answer ever

@JonnyRoot_ It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all doubt of it. He never stops removing any and all doubt.

This statement from Rory McIlroy after blowing a historic 6-shot lead, comes across as wildly arrogant & has a mentality of “one Masters championship is enough for me” Tiger Woods would never answer a question like this.

@JamesMelville Can’t wait for the clown show/media love in that’s been going on for the past year. Time for another Cam to beat him…

Watching Rory McIlroy in a major tournament is stressful. In exactly the same way that it was with Andy Murray. The dramatic lurches between triumph and disaster. The fine line between fragility and resilience. But absolutely captivating.

@AmosMurphy_ That is absolutely how you squander leads. If the chasing pack is catching up then you either extend the lead or squander it. That’s what he did at the Open at St Andrews. Shot only a couple of birdies on Sunday and stayed bogey-free but the Cams shot like 9 birdies and he lost.

This is a bit misleading, no? He didn’t squander anything. Rory dropped a shot from his second round score (-12 to -11). It’s testament to Cam Young and the chasing pack that the final round is as tight as it is.

@israelititan Lol. Ok Ramesh… Good luck 👍

We waiting for this to become true 🇮🇱

@flushingitgolf Awwww... Look at his sad little 🥔 face! Hope he's got a quadruple bogey at the 10 in him. Twat.

Rory McIlroy started the day with a 6 shot lead, but after a 1 over par 73, and great play from the chasing pack, that lead has disappeared and he’s now tied with Cameron Young heading into Sunday. After the round, he met with media before heading to the range: “Yeah, didn't quite have it today. Yeah, even just starting at the first hole with that soft bogey, even though I hit a pretty good drive. Yeah, I mean, the course was obviously gettable. There was a lot of good scores out there, and obviously the quality of the chasing pack is obvious. There was a lot of guys that shot good scores. “You know, there's a lot of guys in with a chance tomorrow. I'm still tied for the best score going into tomorrow, so I can't forget that, but I do know I'm going to have to be better if I want to have a chance to win.” “There's a long way to go. Yeah, this golf course has a way of, you know, when you're not quite feeling it, you struggle… “just need to go to the range and try to figure it out a little bit.” @McIlroyRory @TheMasters

@flushingitgolf God, no! Why would you say that?!

Despite the disappointment today, Rory still has the chance to make history tomorrow as the first player since Tiger Woods in 2002 to successfully defend the Masters.

@Outkick Funny? Someone with a functioning brain should be absolutely floored every time he can string a sentence together…

There’s nothing Rory McIlroy has ever said that could be this funny 😭

@MrinmoyRoy2003 @RobUsry That Belgium managed by Roberto Martinez?😂

@RobUsry Great team always not wins trophies 1982 brazil 2018 belgium

Greece winning EURO 2004 when France was moving like this is still one of the funniest things in soccer history

@JackMacHardy1 @Irish_On_Tour I know. I’m applying the same logic to another golfer who nobody seems to like. Weirdly it’s the Americans who hate the fact tha someone like him won The Open at St Andrews. 🤷🏼

@JmSheikh @Irish_On_Tour Bro Zach Johnson has had a unbelievable career

The Willett hate from the yanks is tiresome.

@dancolosimoo The biggest knock the imbeciles have against Buffon is that he never won the CL. He played for Juve. The famously cursed club in Europe. Was he supposed to score goals for them?!

Buffon at 40 btw

@dancolosimoo Buffon was the superstar keeper in his playing days for Parma. He was standing out in a team with Thuram, Cannavaro and Crespo. No one outside Germay knew who Neuer was until he joined the daddy club Bayern.

@dancolosimoo People forget that most of Neuer’s aura comes from playing for Bayern. They’re the Celtic of Germany but with a great European record.

@flushingitgolf Hope a journeyman wins it. 🇺🇸 or 🇪🇺 doesn’t matter. It’s going to be hilarious to watch all the shills and WRXers going into a meltdown. The slow change of tune about JJ Spaun was something to behold after Oakmont last year.

No player has successfully defended the green jacket since Tiger Woods in 2002. But after Rory McIlroy’s emotional Masters victory last year to complete the Career Grand Slam ended 16 years of heartbreak and a decade long Major drought, he has a great chance to contend again this week. Ahead of his title defence, he spoke about how different it feels arriving at Augusta National with the weight lifted from his shoulders: “I think the best way that I can describe it is -- well, firstly, I would have never gotten up here this early. I would have never arrived on a Saturday. I usually arrive earliest Sunday night but probably Monday, Monday evening. “I think for the past 17 years I just could not wait for the tournament to start, and this year I wouldn't care if the tournament never started (laughter). That's sort of the difference. “Yeah, it's completely different. I feel so much more relaxed. I know that I'm going to be coming back here for a lot of years, going to enjoy the perks that the champions get here. It doesn't make me any less motivated to go out there and play well and try to win the tournament, but yeah, just more relaxed about it all.” Rory McIlroy’s game is very well suited to Augusta National with his towering ball flight and ability to hit shots others can only dream of. With him being completely unburdened this year, a relaxed and free flowing Rory has a real chance to join Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods and Nick Faldo as the only players to successfully defend the Masters. @McIlroyRory @TheMasters

@flushingitgolf Oh God, please no! This mf has milked this Masters win enough. More than Jack did with his SIX. I can’t stand any more posts about this🥔 Please let it end.
