Bryson DeChambeau has broken his silence on his ‘beef’ with Rory McIlroy after revealing the Masters champion had ignored him at Augusta National.
An emotional McIlroy achieved golf’s career Grand Slam after holding his nerve to get the better of Justin Rose in a tense play-off last Sunday.
After the day’s drama, DeChambeau said McIlroy ‘didn’t talk’ to him once. He has now addressed his comments, insisting there was no issue between them.
McIlroy’s sports psychologist Bob Rotella said the cold shoulder approach was a deliberate tactic to allow him to focus his concentration on the job at hand.
