Awesome moment for any golf fan.
I am a Rory McIlroy fan. He is great for the game of golf, and I find him very likable. When he has choked away a few tournaments, he as admitted as much afterwards. That is difficult for any professional. It is easy to forget how young he is too; I think he handles things the right way and will only get more seasoned as the years go by.
Now, does he look as good holding up trophies w/ a non-AP? Absolutely not!! But having met him, he loves AP, and I think he can afford to continue collecting them ;-)
