Rory McIlroy was not in the mood to discuss his personal life while facing a pool of reporters at the PGA Championship on Wednesday … sticking to sports as he fielded questions.
TMZ Sports broke the story — the 35-year-old golf superstar filed for divorce from his wife, Erica Stoll, earlier this week … but anyone hoping to get some more info about Rory’s off-course affairs was left without a sound bite.
Journalists were instructed to NOT ask anything about McIlroy’s personal matters as he took the stage at Valhalla … with someone hopping on the mic beforehand to tell reporters all they need to know was included in the statement his team released on Tuesday.
