The Horizon Irish Open is currently progressing through its second round and is special for Rory McIlroy since it is happening at home for him. The fans are expecting the Irish golfer to recreate the magic he created in 2016. This tournament is important to McIlroy for another reason as well. 

Rory McIlroy recently suffered muscle injuries in the Tour Championship a couple of weeks back. The state of his recovery and his form are of major concern to the fans, especially with the upcoming Ryder Cup battle on the horizon. In these circumstances, the official Instagram handle of DP World Tour has posted a video of Rory McIlroy and it has generated some strong reactions.

Rory McIlroy makes a stunning entrance

The video showed Rory McIlroy walking in with a bright red shirt and a white cap, all set for his round two. The crowd cheered for him enthusiastically. The comment section on this video was truly a mixed bag. There were jokes made. Some comments were cheering for Rory McIlroy. And there were also comments that took a dig at the DP World Tour. 

One fan playfully exaggerated how they experience this uproar every Sunday. “Yeah I mean that’s just what it’s like for me on the Sunday morning swindle 😂.”

This one hilariously pointed out how the Golf Ireland page has not posted any content on the Irish Open recently. However, they are not completely right though. The page does have some posts on the event. We checked. “@golfirelandofficial have forgotten it’s on 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️.”

One of the hardcore “Rory Army” members has been successfully spotted. The fire emojis and the hearts speak for themselves. “Rory come on🔥🔥🔥💓💓💓.” Another member from the Rory Army followed right up. And they are asking a valid question. “How can you not like Rors 🙌”

There were a couple of comments that accused the DP World Tour of being partial to big names like McIlroy. Let’s see what fans have to say about this.

Is the DP World Tour partial to Rory McIlroy?

Looks like someone read the other commenter’s post asking how can someone not like Rory McIlroy. At least this next comment makes one think that way. “This page is partiality… at least show the videos of scoring leader.”

And following the pattern of twos, another comment followed up on the same angle and criticized the page for being partial to Rory McIlroy. “Something else to see the focus on Rory and Shane when the leader is 6 strokes clear with a cracking round. C’mon DP World follow the real golf not the big names.”
