RORY MCILROY IS injured everybody.
Bad enough to miss The Open? Probably. Bad enough to send the Twittersphere into a frantic Monday morning tizzy? You betcha!
Some people on Twitter instantly hit the nail square on the head
Truly, @MarkieHD speaks for all of us when we first heard the news.
Angry questions followed
Not unreasonably angry, probably the same ones McIlroy was asking himself while waiting for scans and a snug-fitting moon boot.
Questions bring snap conclusions
And more anger
What this grievance process needs is some gallows humour
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Oh, God it gets worse and worse
*Breaks down at thought that McIlroy may never win The Open on one particular course*
Put an arm round the lad’s shoulder, share war stories, that’s what he needs
Doc, what do you think?
Send in the trolls
Some subtle…
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Some not so subtle and very keen on dragging other sports into the sledging match.
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
And of course, we can’t talk about McIlroy without talking about the way McIlroy talks, can we?
Let’s all just chill
Great win , 3 more points while our opponents have a few suspension s to contend with . A good week end . Hail Hail
I thought it was a poor performance but job done
@John O Reilly: big 3 points
