Rory McIlroy appeared to demand that a fan be ejected from Aronimink Golf Club on Sunday, May 17 during the final round of the PGA Championship.
The back-to-back Masters winner hit a chip shot that fell short of the green. There were a handful of yells from the crowd, including one person chanting "U-S-A." When his ball bounced into the bunker, McIlroy turned around and said "Shut the f--- up." He then appeared to get the attention of security and used his club to point at the spectator that offended him.
Warning: NSFW language
McIlroy finished 4 under and in a tie for seventh place. The golfer had a slow start to the tournament due to a blister on his pinky toe. He had a bogey-less second round that boosted him to make the cut.
He used another four-letter word when addressing the media about his poor performance in the first round.
