Summary
McIlroy said it was ‘performative’ and the tournament had been ‘held hostage’. "Again, it's like, whether it was careless or whether it was intentional, I don't think it matters. The world number two did not hold back when asked for his thoughts on DeChambeau's conduct on the second round of play, when the American was involved in a lengthy, heated post-round exchange with rules officials as they reviewed whether he had inadvertently improved the path of his swing on the fifth hole.
Furthermore, The world No 2, who accused DeChambeau of holding the tournament 'hostage' with his initial threats to quit, said: 'I won't pretend to be up here and defend Bryson. DeChambeau was sporadically heckled during his third round, with occasional calls of 'cheat' among better-natured jibes about manipulating the rough as an echo of the incident that cost him two penalty strokes on Friday.
