Rory took a subtle shot at Greg Norman, the CEO of the breakaway LIV series, after he had won a PGA Tour title for the 21st time. While the moderator introduced him, he interjected: “And one more than Norman.”

“This is a day I’ll remember for a long, long time,” McIlroy said on CBS following his victory at St George’s Golf and Country Club in Toronto. “Twenty-first PGA Tour win. One more than someone else. That gave me a little bit of extra incentive today and happy to get it done.”

He added: “I had [the] extra motivation of what’s going on across the pond. The guy that’s spearheading that tour has 20 wins on the PGA Tour. I was tied with him and I wanted to get one ahead of him. And I did. So, that was really cool for me, just a little sense of pride on that one.”
