Rory McIlroy Shares Intense Workout
There's a common phrase thrown around when describing professional golfers: “He’s not an athlete. He’s a golfer.” The misconception generates passionate arguments, and it's one Rory McIlroy spent the weekend completely putting to bed.
As professional golfers around the globe figure out how to spend their free time during this unexpected offseason, the world No. 1 is proving he’s not only a dominant force on the golf course, but also a beast in the gym.
Case in point, McIlroy’s social media posts over the last few days. He has been calling out fellow PGA Tour pros Billy Horschel, Justin Thomas and Charley Hoffman to try and compete with him on Peloton.
