Rory McIlroy expressed his irritation over the leak of information regarding a forced driver change during the US PGA Championship, admitting that the details should have remained private. The issue arose when his driver was deemed non-conforming, a situation he shares with Scottie Scheffler, whose similar driver problem was also surfacing in the media. McIlroy reflected on his challenging week at the tournament, emphasizing his desire to protect the confidentiality of himself and others involved in the situation, showing the pressures athletes face concerning media scrutiny.
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.
I didn't want to get up there and say something that I regretted. I'm trying to protect Scottie. I don't want to mention his name. I'm trying to protect TaylorMade.
