Rory McIlroy is shown mocking LIV rebels Patrick Reed and Phil Mickelson in the new Netflix golf series - after admitting he had got “too personal” in golf’s civil war.
The world No.1 plays a starring role in Full Swing - golf’s answer to Formula One’s ratings hit Drive to Survive. The eight-part documentary series covered the most controversial year in the history of the sport with the Saudi-back breakaway league starting in June - and the repercussions rumbling on all year.
Along with Tiger Woods, McIlroy emerged as one of the biggest critics of LIV Golf and helped negotiate big-money changes to the PGA Tour. The Ulsterman has also become embroiled in a running feud with LIV commissioner Greg Norman - and he clashed with Reed in Dubai last month.
