RBC Canadian Open: Rory McIlroy Ripped by Fans for PGA Tour Career Worst
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Five days before the U.S. Open at Oakmont. That's when Rory McIlroy hit rock bottom. For the first time since The Open Championship last July, McIlroy missed the cut at a PGA Tour event. But this wasn't just any early exit—this was a crash landing. A 71-78 collapse, losing over 10 strokes to the field, McIlroy posted the worst 36-hole finish of his PGA Tour career. He finished 149th among 153 players. That is truly remarkable. CALEDON, ONTARIO - JUNE 05: Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland walks off the 10th green during the first round of the RBC Canadian Open 2025 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley on June 05, 2025... CALEDON, ONTARIO - JUNE 05: Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland walks off the 10th green during the first round of the RBC Canadian Open 2025 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley on June 05, 2025 in Caledon, Ontario. (Photo by) More Getty Images Golf can be cruel, but when equipment fails, pressure mounts, and public scrutiny collides? That's a whole different level of brutal. Back in April, Rory McIlroy won the 2025 Masters with a commanding performance, securing what was supposed to be his biggest momentum boost yet. But instead of riding that wave, his game spiraled. At the PGA Championship, McIlroy lost control off the tee, hitting only 10 of 28 fairways—not a good accuracy rate in the field. His approach game was just as rough, ranking 65th in Strokes Gained: Approach and 69th in proximity to the hole. The result? A frustrated McIlroy, who even made the situation worse for himself after skipping the media. And if this was not enough, McIlroy thought he had found a fix before the RBC Canadian Open. With his trusted TaylorMade Qi10 driver failing USGA testing at Quail Hollow, he switched to the new Qi35—hoping it would solve his off-the-tee struggles. It did not. I have 1,118 rounds on Rory McIlroy in my database. Today's 78 lost him -8.471 strokes to the field. It's the second worst round of his career behind R2 of the 2013 Northwestern Mutual World Challenge. — Rick Gehman (@RickRunGood) June 6, 2025 "Still, I felt like I came here obviously with a new driver thinking that that sort of thing was going to be good and solve some of the problems off the tee, but it didn't," McIlroy admitted after his disastrous 8-over 78 on Friday. His round included one quadruple bogey, a double bogey, eight bogeys, and five birdies. "Yeah, of course it concerns me. You don't want to shoot high scores like the one I did today," he said, frustration dripping from his words. And now, with Oakmont looming, McIlroy knows exactly what's at stake. "Obviously going to Oakmont next week, what you need to do more than anything else there is hit fairways," he stressed. This led to fans questioning his Masters win As if missing the cut wasn't bad enough, McIlroy now finds himself at the center of golf's latest backlash. "Rory obviously won the Masters with an illegal driver. Need to have an asterisk by his name in the Grand Slam record books," one fan posted, setting off a wave of debate - if his Masters win was fair. Another responded, "I agree, why isn't there more of an uproar over that?" That was not the end, others piled up saying: "It's hard to play well when you use legal clubs." and "Glad it was the first time this season I threw down on him..." Some even used GIFs to mock his low point in Toronto. Rory McIlroy's effort at the RBC Canadian Open. — Chris (@Chris2Buckets) June 6, 2025 McIlroy knows this isn't just about fixing a swing—it's about recovering mentally, and finding his footing before golf's toughest test. "Still sort of searching for the missing piece off the tee," he admitted. "Obviously for me, when I get that part of the game clicking, then everything falls into place for me. Right now that isn't." The U.S. Open demands perfection, and McIlroy is running out of time. With just five days to figure it out, what do you think? Will McIlroy be able to fight the dark clouds?

Why Rory McIlroy was 'annoyed' by PGA Championship failed driver test, skipped media
Why Rory McIlroy was 'annoyed' by PGA Championship failed driver test, skipped media Show Caption Hide Caption Rory McIlroy on Bryson DeChambeau comment about not talking at Masters Rory McIlroy was asked about Bryson DeChambeau's comment that the two didn't speak during the final round of the 2025 Masters. Rory McIlroy finally talked about why he wasn't talking. The 2025 Masters winner spoke for the first time Wednesday about his failed driver test at last month's PGA Championship and defended his decision to skip speaking with reporters throughout the major tournament. McIlroy said during a pre-tournament news conference at the PGA Tour's RBC Canadian Open outside Toronto that part of his silence was due to being "pretty annoyed" only his failed driver test was leaked to the public and not also Scottie Scheffler, according to Golfweek. Scheffler later revealed he also was ruled to have had a non-conforming driver during PGA Championship week. 'I was a little pissed off because I knew that Scottie's driver had failed on Monday, but my name was the one that was leaked. It was supposed to stay confidential. Two members of the media were the ones that leaked it," McIlroy said. "I didn't want to get up there and say something that I regretted, either, because there's a lot of people that — I'm trying to protect Scottie. I don't want to mention his name. I'm trying to protect TaylorMade. I'm trying to protect the USGA, PGA of America, myself. I just didn't want to get up there and say something that I regretted at the time. With Scottie's stuff, that's not my information to share. I knew that that had happened, but that's not on me to share that, and I felt that process is supposed to be kept confidential, and it wasn't for whatever reason. That's why I was pretty annoyed at that.' 2025 RBC CANADIAN OPEN: Predictions, odds, sleeper picks McIlroy had a disappointing showing at the 2025 PGA Championship on the heels of becoming just the sixth golfer in history to complete the sport's career grand slam. He finished in a tie for 47th (+3) and was never in contention after shooting a 74 in the first round. The RBC Canadian Open, which begins with first-round action on Thursday, is McIlroy's first PGA Tour event since the PGA Championship. But it was McIlroy's cold shoulder to reporters throughout the second major of the year that became as much the story as his performance. In explaining why he chose to do that, McIlroy called the PGA Championship "a bit of a weird week." He played poorly and wanted to practice after the first round, rather than speak with reporters. The second day of the tournament ended late and he wanted to get back to see his daughter, Poppy, before she went to bed. His tee time on Saturday got delayed from the morning to the afternoon and he felt too tired to speak with reporters afterwards. "Then Sunday, I just wanted to get on the plane and go back to Florida," McIlroy said. 'From a responsibility standpoint, look, I understand, but if we all wanted to, we could all bypass you guys ... and we could go on social media and we could talk about our round and do it our own way,' McIlroy added, addressing reporters and the PGA Tour media policy. 'We understand that that's not ideal for you guys and there's a bigger dynamic at play here, and I talk to you guys and I talk to the media a lot." "I think there should be an understanding that this is a two-way street," he continued, "and as much as we need to speak to you guys, we understand the benefit that comes from you being here and giving us the platform and everything else. So I understand that. But again, I've been beating this drum for a long time. If they want to make it mandatory, that's fine, but in our rules it says that it's not, and until the day that that's maybe written into the regulations, you're going to have guys skip from time to time, and that's well within our rights.' McIlroy also declined to speak with reporters after he blew a late lead with bogeys on three of the final four holes at the 2024 U.S. Open. His silence at the PGA Championship comes after a similar discussion emerged when Collin Morikawa declined to hold a session with reporters after he finished in second place at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March. Though Morikawa took criticism from golfers-turned-commentators like Brandel Chamblee and Rocco Mediate, McIlroy came to his defense. McIlroy is slated to play in the 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club beginning June 12 after his appearance at the RBC Canadian Open this week.

Justin Thomas Catches Attention for What He Did During PGA Championship
It wasn't the best day on the course for Justin Thomas at Quail Hollow on Thursday. He shot a 73 (+2) in the opening round of the PGA Championship, placing him in a tie for 73rd. Thomas got off to a rough start, going +3 through the first three holes. He finished the front nine at +4. While his play improved on the back nine, a bogey on the 18th left him with a 34 on that side and a 73 overall. Advertisement Despite the ups and downs, Thomas delivered a highlight-reel moment on the 16th hole. From just under 37 feet off the green, he chipped in for birdie, moving to +1 at the time and drawing attention from fans and fellow golfers alike. Here's how golf fans reacted to the shot: One fan said, "16 has been brutal to the players. Good to see someone get one back." A Justin Thomas fan was excited, "Love it! GO JT!!!" "Congrats, JT!" cried out this fan. This fan was extremely impressed with the shot, "Insane. Great chip" Golf fans know a good shot when they see it, as one wrote, "So pure." This golf fan was impressed, but even more impressed with a later shot: "His shot on 18 was better." Justin Thomas at the RBC Heritage. Jim Dedmon-Imagn Images Thomas, who turned 32 in April, has two major wins to his name, both at the PGA Championship. His most recent victory at this event came in 2022. In total, he has 16 PGA Tour wins since joining the tour in 2013 after playing college golf at the University of Alabama. Advertisement He finished tied for 36th at the 2025 Masters in April.
