I can't stand Rory McIlroy

I guess if you’re a Rory fan you liked the coverage; that’s how I was for Tiger in his heyday; even now actually. I find Rory a bit boring, but I’ll say this: I’ve seen a lot of pros hit tee shots now up close. I caught Rory up close for the first time at no.1 tee box at the masters the year Patrick reed won; his tee shot floored me. The most powerful and majestic shot I’ve ever seen. He’s definitely got a bit extra.

Yep, crazy length, but his short game won this Master's! That's what makes him special, not many bombers have the smooth hands as well!

Rory is a great golfer. I would love to see him win 3 in a row at Augusta.

So you don’t like him because of CBS?? That isn’t Rory’s fault he isn’t doing the broadcast!

I was agreeing with post #33 which said the broadcasting fawning over one particular athlete could lead to fans despising the athlete. Not the athlete's fault but still happens.

Rory is only 5'10" so he gets a lot out of his swing. The most majestic swing I've ever watched in person was Tom Weiskoff. It looked effortless when he hit the ball.

There was a guy named Dan Forsman that we used to watch at Augusta.He had such a beautiful long swing we always wondered why he didn’t win more .I guess the old saying you drive for show and putt for dough is true.
