The video has been trending on Twitter and other social media platforms after several sports pages reposted it. Fans are making fun of the situation that unfolded in the video. However, social media star Paige Spiranac had a completely different perspective on the incident.

Golf star Rory McIlroy has been pretty vocal about his true feelings regarding LIV Golf. And as per his statements about Greg Norman and his league, McIlroy will certainly find the news discomforting.
