McIlroy (72) dressed for success, but ballstriking doesn't get memo
ORLANDO, Fla. – Who wore it better?
“Arnie, definitely,” said Rory McIlroy, who showed up at Bay Hill Club and Lodge on Thursday dressed in a navy polo with Arnold Palmer’s iconic umbrella logo, cream-colored pants and belt, and custom Arnold Palmer-themed Nike golf shoes. It was a tribute to one of Palmer’s most memorable photos.
“That picture of him in the navy top and these colored pants is a very iconic photo,” McIlroy said, “so just trying to sort of emulate that a bit.”
