Paige Spiranac has slammed Rory McIlroy after the Northern Irish man left without speaking to media after Sunday's PGA Championship.
McIlroy was left visibly disappointed after his eight place finish, finishing three shots behind winner Justin Thomas.
The four-time major led the field after day one of the tournament with a blistering five under opening round.
But McIlroy was five over par for his next two rounds and despite a fast start on Sunday was unable to mount a real charge at the title.
And the former world number one did not speak to media after the round and Paige Spiranac was not happy with the development.
She said: "Shocking. Rory gets a pass? He doesn't turn down interviews all the time.
"Like, Bryson turns them down just because.
"Rory turned it down because I think Rory is just…hearing everything that everyone is saying and he's hearing what he is saying in his own head and it's just a lot.
"So, when you look at both situations [McIlroy's and Pereira's Sunday], I think you would say that he [McIlroy] would come out on top and this is again something he can learn from.
"But I feel like mentally this is something that's harder for someone like Rory to overcome than Mito. And I think it's because, again, it's the same narrative with Rory over and again.
"It breaks my heart to say this, but he's serving up the Rory special. He has the lead, he's in contention, he blows it with one round, kinda gives it a Sunday run when it doesn't matter.
"And it's like…where's this Rory that when he first came out that was fiery and had no fear? Now it's like he can't string four rounds together to get it done.
"What's going on between to his ears that's causing him to continuously do this over and over again?"
McIlroy did break his silence as he spoke to media today and revealed he would not be playing in the Irish Open this year.
He said: "I'll go to Adare Manor and play JP’s Pro-Am and then just probably be around the area that week, play some links golf and then head to St Andrews maybe the weekend before to get some prep done."
