On the Monday after yet another disappointing showing from Rory McIlroy at the Masters, a well-known media outlet based out of London reported that the 34-year-old could soon be headed to LIV Golf on a deal worth $850 million.
Sean O’Flaherty, McIlroy’s agent and a man who would surely know his client’s plans moving forward, has completely shut down the idea that McIlroy would be making the move to the Saudi-backed circuit.
