While we’re on the subject there Rory, we need a new vehicle…

Well, McIlroy dropped into the comments to respond to Edwards, offering him an older Nike Covert driver.

He already has four major titles but this act might ensure that McIlroy’s fifth gets him a few extra cheers on the green.

The conversation continued after that, mainly because Barry didn’t think he was serious.

“Served me well! Message me your address and my team will ship it to you”, McIlroy posted. I was joking lol… “But would be very, very greatful (sic)”.

Willett managed a tie for 11th in Antalya and is now 399,385 points behind the world number three, with this week’s WGC-HSBC Champions event looming large.

“Coming into these events, knowing that I’m sixth on the Race to Dubai, I know one good week can change everything and give it a last final push”, Grace said. “Can’t wait to buy Rory’s driver”.

“It’s going nowhere… It’ll be treasured greatly…” he confirmed.
