This is hilarious! Rors and JT are really good buddies, and they golf together all the time back home. They’re even playing with each other in the first 2 rounds this week (Brooks is their 3rd). But that doesn’t mean when you have an opportunity to take a shot at one of your boys, you turn it down.

You can see the moment Rory spots Justin Thomas at the back of his press conference, grins and then drops the hammer:

Justin Thomas won the 2017 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, but hasn’t won another major since. What a perfectly timed question from this reporter allowing Rory to take this shot at his buddy.

I grew up in southern New Hampshire, where I first fell in love with the game of golf. I started by just going out and messing around with my buddies and focusing purely on having a good time! I never took golf seriously until I moved down to Tampa, FL to attend the University of South Florida. Go Bulls! At the start of my junior year I got a job working as a cart boy at a local private country club. This is when I started to focus on golf becoming my career. During the fall of my senior year, I turned from a 14 handicap, to a 2. I passed the PAT scoring test my first try and haven't looked back.
