“Not everyone’s going to like you”: Rory McIlroy talks authenticity, responds to backlash, says he won’t change for the critics
Rory McIlroy, the golfer, was slightly ignorant, arrogant, and somewhat cocky during his youth. The Northern Irishman remains precisely who he is. He had no reservations about the fact that, even as an amateur, he understood he was here to win. For critics, this was the perfect opportunity to blame and point the finger at him. He exhibited his journey of disengaging from the criticism at Bethpage by blocking out all the noise.
