Cameron Smith side-stepped a rather brutal question about Rory McIlroy following the first round of last week's LIV Golf event, which he ended up winning.
At the close of play at Rich Harvest Farms on Friday, Smith was on six under par, three off leader Dustin Johnson. But in the 36 holes that followed, it was the Australian star who overhauled the American to seal his first LIV win and with it, a huge £3.5 million.
Back in July, Smith, 29, captured his first major championship when a searing final round of 64 sealed him The Open at St Andrews. It meant more major disappointment for McIlroy, who was four clear of his rival after the third round.
