Rory McIlroy aimed a not too subtle dig at the ever-growing cohort of top golfers who have ditched the traditional PGA Tour in favour of joining the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Series.
His compatriot Graeme McDowell is among those who have chosen to join the lucrative new venture which hosts its inaugural event this week in London.
McIlroy has been one of the most vocal critics of LIV since it became a legitimate threat to the established order even if he did row back on his initially emphatic criticism of Phil Mickelson over controversial comments the American had made about LIV's Saudi backers where he branded them 'scary motherf**kers.'
