Paige Spiranac is one of the most well-known golfing entities. She has a substantial following on social media and even has a podcast where she discusses the game every week. Recently she talked about Rory McIlroy’s disappointment and his decision to skip post-round interviews. 

Rory McIlroy was leading the 2022 PGA Championship after round one. However, as it has been happening for a couple of years, McIlroy lost momentum and slipped down the leaderboard. Therefore, the Irish golfer was completely frustrated as he finished the Championship 8th with a score of -2. 

Meanwhile, after completing the round, he skipped the media session, which is rare. He is seldom seen so upset and disappointed after the final round put Spiranac in disbelief. “Rory gets a pass? He doesn’t turn down interviews all the time.” 

“Rory turned it down because I think Rory is just… hearing everything that everyone is saying, and he’s hearing what he is saying in his own head, and it’s just a lot,” believes Spiranac. McIlroy took the lead early on, but one horrific round put him out of contention. Although he played a blinder on Sunday, it did not matter as he had slipped far behind from recovery.
