Fox News anchor calls Rory McIlroy a ‘leprechaun’, says she ‘can’t stand him’
Fair and balanced, right? Fox News is at it again, but this time they’ve decided to offer their slant on happenings in the golf world.
During the Monday edition of “Outnumbered,” the update anchor was sharing details of Rory McIlroy’s ankle injury he suffered on July 4 while playing soccer with friends. The injury may prevent McIlroy from defending his British Open crown, making him the first player since Ben Hogan in 1954 to miss that title defense.
Once the update was done, an off-camera anchor weighed in on McIlroy, saying, “He’s a leprechaun. I can’t stand him.”
Anchor Harris Faulkner moved on very quickly from that comment, so we’re not entirely sure why the disgust for the world No. 1. So we’ll just report and let you decide.
