Rory McIlroy showed his class for the umpteenth time and won against Scottie Scheffler in the final round of the Tour. This will provide him with an incredible figure of 26 million dollars! Rory McIlroy will be part of the DP World Tour’s BMW Championship in mid-September.
There will also be LIV Golf players, and we know what kind of relationship the PGA Tour has with them. McIlroy is not happy to see them, considering that he is a great opponent of LIV Golf and their sports philosophy. “If you believe in something I think you have to speak up, and I believe very strongly about this.
I really do,” McIlroy said for foxsports. “I hate what it’s doing to the game of golf. I hate it. I really do. Like it’s going to be hard for me to stomach going to Wentworth in a couple of weeks’ time and seeing 18 of them there.
That just doesn’t sit right with me. I believe what I‘m saying are the right things, and I think when you believe that what you’re saying is the right things, you’re happy to stick your neck out on the line”.
Rory McIlroy will defend PGA Tour
McIlroy has no plans to stop fighting LIV Golf. He is aware of how much the PGA Tour has given him and others, and is willing to give his all to protect the PGA. “Look, it’s been a tumultuous time for the world of men’s professional golf in particular.
I’ve been right in the middle of it. I’ve picked a great time to go on the PGA Tour board,” he said. “I‘ve been in the thick of things. I guess every chance I get, I’m trying to defend what I feel is the best place to play elite professional golf in the world.
It’s in some ways fitting that I was able to get this done today to sort of round off a year that has been very, very challenging and different”.
