RORY MCILROY UNDERTOOK one of the toughest interviews of his career to date, as he spoke to nine-year-old Billy in Dubai, ahead of his defence of the DP World Tour Championship.

Billy grilled the four-time Major champion on much more than just golf, with the subjects ranging from haircuts to female tennis players and Donald Trump.

It left for some pretty entertaining viewing.

And just wait until you hear the reasoning behind Billy’s generous wedding gift at the end!

    Ronaldo was right in fairness. Why bring up a nothing story from 3 months ago? Just to get a reaction?

    Maybe he’s in love with Ronny and got a bit flustered…
