Rory McIlroy has decided to cut Talor Gooch some slack after the LIV player came out with a controversial statement about the legitimacy of major championship victories in 2024.
Speaking from the Cognizant Classic at PGA National Resort, McIlroy addressed Gooch’s quotes, which first appeared in Australian Golf Digest.
According to Gooch, if McIlroy were to win the Masters and capture the career grand slam this year at Augusta National, the victory would need an “asterisk” due the lack of LIV players included the field.
