‘Feel Like a Sacrificial Lamb’: Rory McIlroy’s Shocking LIV Merger Reaction Released Per Latest Full Swing Teaser

The Full Swing’s season 2’s extended trailer just dropped! Interestingly enough, Rory McIlroy’s words have left the golf world gasping for air. His blunt reaction to the announcement of a merger between the frenemies, the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, over the last year has been shocking for many of us.

McIlroy was seen expressing how loyal PGA Tour players like himself “feel a lot of betrayal” after the massively unexpected announcement dropped. What really struck a chord with the rest of the golf world, however, was how he expressed his own feelings on the matter.

The star said, “I feel like a sacrificial lamb,” while expressing his complete disappointment with the Tour. Even though things have changed over the months, it would be a sight to witness the raw feelings of big names like the Northern Irishman in the famous Netflix series.

Even though the once rival leagues have not been able to arrive at a decision since their first announcement declaring their shared desire for a merger, the sharp opinions of players like McIlroy (as seen in the video) have taken a full circle. Interestingly, McIlroy has now gone from feeling like a “sacrificial lamb” to becoming the key advocate of a “global golf Tour.” The blow sure has softened over time!

What does McIlroy’s softened stance indicate?

After initially making harsh statements against the Greg Norman-led breakaway league and bringing in the legacy vs. money debate into the picture, things have changed so drastically that it is now being heavily speculated that the 24-time PGA Tour winner might just end up joining LIV Golf.
