Honda Classic - Rory has left the building

Rory has withdrawn on the 18th ater hitting his ball into the water.!!!

You beat me to it Setup - I was just going to post the same thing! Apparently he was already 7 over (after 8 - he started on the 10th) and put his approach to 18 in the water - he just left the course at that point.

Something seriously wrong there! And as I understand it PGA rules require a medical report if people WD mid-round. Wonder what his excuse will be? (Caro was also dumped out of her tournament this morning)

Another great advertisement for the new Nike Wanchor Irons Guaranteed to send you sinking towards the bottom of the leaderboard.

Latest word is that he was in extreme pain from "wisdom" tooth which affected his concentration.

"Wisdom" seems ironic as it doesn't seem a particularly wise thing to do...

Hmmm, but when he came off the course he said that he was "not in a great place mentally". The wisdom tooth story sounds like it could be damage limitation by his management group.

I still think he'd have remained more grounded if he'd stayed with Chubby.

Left for work this morning feeling pretty good about my e/w bet on Camilo Villegas since he was round 1 leader. Now I have finished work and see he has a had a stinker of a second round and will likely miss the cut... I can pick them

Really quite vomit-inducing stuff from Mark Roe on the intro to Sky's coverage tonight

McIlroy has some sort of serious problem at the moment - don't know if the toothache thing may have a bearing on it but that is not the whole story

Nike execs will the bailing out of office windows all over the world

Much as I dislike the current Tiger (as opposed to Tiger of 10 years ago) - he battled out with a broken leg (even if it was only a stress fracture). You don't walk off a course with toothache

Pain from a wisdom tooth doesn't come on over night (I should know, I had to have all 4 out - but that doesn't mean the Lady Judge has no wisdom ) so I think it was just an excuse. He's getting as bad, if not worse, than his NBF Tiger (they have been playing cosy practice rounds together). I wonder if there's problems with Caroline ..... ? Maybe she doesn't like threesomes

I heard that she prefers mixed doubles

so basically McIlroy is getting to be a supercock then.

Apparently Rory is going to speak "honestly" at the press conference on Wednesday, regarding walking off the course last week.

I'm glad you put "honestly" in inverted commas Mary

I can't believe anything will be "honest" about this whole affair - it will all be covered in spin and after all, his advisers will have had 5-6 days to concoct something.

I'm sure it will be bland and boring

For every complex problem, there is a simple solution. #FTB

Apparently FTB = "F**k the bullsh*t

Wonder if that's gonna get deleted later on.

So it looks as though he didn't have toothache after all. Sad to see that he hasn't apologised for lying - just for walking off the course.
