BREAKING NEWS🛑 BRYSON DECHAMBEAU MOCKS RORY MCILROY AFTER DISASTROUS 2025 PGA PERFORMANCE
The 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Club has taken yet another dramatic twist, this time fueled by a fiery exchange between golf’s biggest names. As Rory McIlroy’s tournament ended in disappointment with a disqualification over a non-conforming TaylorMade Qi10 driver, Bryson DeChambeau seized the moment to deliver a stinging rebuke. On Sunday, May 18, 2025, at 01:57 PM +07, DeChambeau took to social media to mock McIlroy, stating, “He’s so bad to be ranked so low, even far behind me.”
McIlroy’s exit came after the United States Golf Association (USGA) confirmed he had used the illegal driver during practice sessions, leading to his disqualification under Rule 4.1. The Northern Irishman, who was at 1-over-par and T61 after 54 holes, saw his hopes of a third PGA title crumble amid the controversy. The incident has already sparked widespread debate, with CBS reporter Amanda Balionis defending McIlroy as a victim of unfair treatment.
DeChambeau, a prominent LIV Golf star, capitalized on the situation, highlighting his own strong showing at -5 through 54 holes, placing him firmly in contention. His taunt came as he prepares for the final round, where he aims to challenge leaders like Scottie Scheffler (-11) and Alex Noren (-8). The jab underscores the ongoing rivalry between PGA Tour loyalists and LIV Golf defectors, with DeChambeau relishing the opportunity to outshine his rival.
Fans on social media have reacted strongly, with some cheering DeChambeau’s bold confidence, while others criticize the timing of his remarks, calling them disrespectful given McIlroy’s recent struggles. The golf world remains divided, with the incident adding fuel to the heated narrative surrounding equipment rules and player rivalries. As the final round unfolds, all eyes will be on whether DeChambeau can back up his words with a victory, or if Scheffler and Noren will silence the noise.
For McIlroy, the fallout continues to grow, with his legacy now under scrutiny. DeChambeau’s mocking has only intensified the pressure, setting the stage for a dramatic conclusion to an already tumultuous championship.
