AUGUSTA, Ga. – Rory McIlroy was outspoken last month that it took the members at Muirfield two separate votes to approve a measure to allow female members.
“It's obscene. Like it's ridiculous,” he said at Bay Hill.
Two weeks earlier, the Northern Irishman had been criticized for playing a round of golf with President Donald Trump, a polarizing figure who has been criticized for making sexist remarks.
On Tuesday at Augusta National, McIlroy was asked how he would explain what some consider a disconnect between his comments regarding Muirfield and decision to play golf with Trump.
