Rory McIlroy has been playing with an illegal driver.....caught at the PGA Championship

To me, this calls into question his wins at the Masters and the Players Championship this year, as he was obviously using the same driver in those tournaments. It seems like the PGA Tour is trying to sweep this under the rug because he is their "Golden Boy" by saying a driver can become non-conforming through general use, but it seems to be the equivalent of a Baseball player Corking his bat.

 

Granted, I haven't been the biggest fan of his, but it seems he crossed the line to get himself that elusive Masters title. I think the PGA Tour needs to "sack up" and investigate this further, instead of letting him skate like this.

 

By the way, with his new legal driver, he barely made the cut, and sits over 10 shots behind leader Scottie Scheffler going into tomorrow's final round.
