And now ‘Sweet Caroline’ is awkward for Rory McIlroy forever
I guess Rory McIlroy can’t go to a Boston Red Sox game anymore, lest he be within earshot of a Neil Diamond song in public.
The world No. 1 was in attendance at an Ulster-Connacht rugby game in Belfast, Northern Ireland, on Friday. At halftime, McIlroy was interviewed by the BBC. Whoever controls the music inside the stadium had some fun with McIlroy during the interview, cranking “Sweet Caroline” as a nod to McIlroy’s ex-fiance Caroline Wozniacki. McIlroy ended their relationship in May, just after the wedding invitations were mailed.
During the interview, McIlroy realizes what’s playing over the public address system, and his reaction is priceless.
