Rory McIlroy Explains ‘STFU’ Flashpoint: Heckle Between Shots, Not Over Ball

McIlroy said crowd chirps are fine “in between shots,” but “when they’re still doing it while you’re over the ball… that’s the tough thing.” The stance follows his 16th-hole “shut the f*** up" snap during Saturday morning Foursome. Tommy Fleetwood holed the winner in that round against Collin Morikawa/Harris English. Earlier, McIlroy was flying kisses to the hostile U.S. crowd.
