We’re all getting set for a bumper weekend of Golf with the first Major of the year, The Masters in August, Georgia. Rory McIlroy was having a bit of tongue and cheek joke about The Masters dinner that has a lot of people talking ..
"People keep asking me, 'Why didn't you go more Irish?' And I said, 'Because I want to enjoy the dinner as well.'"

Here are some of the comments online ..
That’s the kinda thing that sees lots of Irish people take him or leave him. No need for it.
His menu says a lot about the fairytale world he lives in. No real Irishman would make those comments.Well, to be frank, I wouldn’t even know what would be more Irish on my dinner plate, but I would be intrigued to try it if I was invited. 😅
Irish food is great and Guinness is a popular drink throughout the world, no need for Rory to say any different
Should’ve served a proper Irish breakfast fry with bangers and black pudding.
