In a recent interview with Golfweek, Tom Weiskopf, the 1973 Open Championship winner, provided his opinion on Rory McIlroy’s future prospects at golf’s biggest events.
It didn’t take long for McIlroy to catch wind of Weiskopf’s remarks. In an exclusive interview with Golfweek, McIlroy dished on several topics, including Weiskopf’s comments.
“I’ve never met Tom Weiskopf in my life, he’s never met me, so he’s obviously making a statement based on what he sees from the outside, but I don’t think that’s a fair assessment,” McIlroy said. “I’ve shown throughout my career that I care, that I want to win, that I want to be the best. And I’ve been the best. It’s not as if I’m out there in the clouds and not thinking about it. I try my heart out on every single shot, every single tournament that I play.”
