  1. Sounds to me like Rory just wants a break and to live a normal life, it must be hard being famous, you enjoy yourself Rory 👍🏻 but please get your game face on for the Ryder cup

  2. He looks so uncomfortable in interviews.. like he is being handled. He needs to learn to relax. It is making him a bitter old man. I think he has lost the joy of golf. Needs to have fun again.

  3. He’s still pissed at the media … We are all going to know what he’s using soon anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️

  4. Takes no more words to answer the driver question than to be a prick about it. I bet Bryson or Scottie would answer the question .

  5. Walk away Rory…you don't need nor deserve the amount of shite that's flowed out of the key pads of armchair no bodies. Get about enjoying what you've earned and achieved and drop in at Augusta occasionally just to have a Craic or two with the lads.You owe Golf nout mate.👍👍

  6. These negative questions… do reporters really have no clue of the golfers mind?? All the professional golfers are just that. Professional. My hats off to all you guys. I'd lose my mind if i kept getting asked questions about my bad driver, missed cuts or whatever. I dont want that in my head ever. 😂

  7. Rory I'm happy for ya, you owe us fans nothing. I'm selfish and wish I could watch you for another ten years, but I’m all about you living your best life. Golf will be around and if you ever feel like you need another friend I'm here for ya. Wish you all the best and sucks that TM destroyed a great driver. If you can't hit it, you can't hit it no more needs to be said.

  8. Shit the real thing is these golf club companies need to stop making new equipment every year should be every other year

  9. Rory is explaining how he turns around from his having missed cut at US Opens to be a runner up two years in a row. No other players explains like him. People don’t appreciate or people have no idea what he is talking about.

  10. He did great at the masters, so its feel crazy that he now needs to explain himself like he has done something bad.

  11. He’s earned the right to have a bad patch & his honesty that he’s still enjoying the grand slam victory off the course is refreshing and completely understandable

  12. He’s such a baby. The driver answer is stupid. They are gonna find out just answer the question. He is so unlikeable.

  13. This guy is as unlikeable as they come. All you fanboys are skewed. Dude is feminine in his actions, emotions and interactions. Pure drama. No class whatsoever.

  14. I have been watching his interviews for 15 years. I said what I said. He used to be happy and carefree exciting. PGA screwed him. Then back doored him with the failed merger. Just doesn't seem happy.
