BTS Singer Kim Taehyung Has a Message for Golf Icon Rory McIlroy

Over the past few weeks, BTS’ Kim Taehyung (also known as V) has made his interest in golf quite evident. The 26-year-old has shared multiple practice videos with fans, admitting that he is still a rookie. Currently in the USA for the Grammys and concerts, Taehyung made sure to get some practice in.

In a recent tweet, the Christmas Tree singer surprised fans by tagging PGA Tour star, Rory McIlroy. Fans seemed excited for Taehyung, who even changed the layout of BTS’ official Twitter account.

Taehyung’s tweet has only generated more excitement, as everyone wants to see the idol perform better. Additionally, Taehyung’s tweet comes days before The Masters, where McIlroy is up to complete his Grand Slam.

Why does Taehyung want to meet Rory McIlroy?

Considering Taehyung’s tweet, the South Korean star simply seems to be inviting McIlroy and probably asking him to teach a few things. Interestingly, he even referred to himself as a ‘golf genius’, hyping himself up. The video itself is a short clip of V hitting the shot.

Furthermore, fans even speculated that they could hear other members, like Jeon Jungkook and Jung Hoseok, in the background. Taehyung even changed their Twitter account’s header and profile photo to him on a course.

Of course, the four-time major champion is yet to respond.

Where did Taehyung play?

Though there is no confirmation, Taehyung apparently played at a place called Top Golf. The venue’s Charman Suite apparently costs $8000 for three hours. Comparing the images shared online with Taehyung’s clip, it looks like BTS’ second youngest booked that very place.

Earlier, Taehyung has also shared Instagram stories about playing and practicing with a 7-iron. He has addressed multiple questions about golf on Weverse as well, which is a platform they use to interact with fans. Apparently, Taehyung started playing the game because his dad wanted to do so.

Furthermore, BTS’ Min Yoongi is also known to play golf. Not only have fans been rooting for Taehyung to get better, they even want him to play and have fun with another member.

Notably, McIlroy will be playing The Masters at Augusta National Golf Club next. Looking at a Grand Slam, his victory could truly be iconic for him. The 32-year-old last played Valero Texas Open, where he missed the cut.
