This is incredible — every piece of mail in the UK from April 15-17 has been stamped with a special congratulatory message for Rory.
(H/T @lmwilliamson7)
Apparently, Rory has donated the whole of his Masters prize money ($4.2m/£3.1m) to Mencap, a Northern Island charity which supports thousands of people with a learning disability.
Think @justinprose99 represents so many things that Rory does. He works his butt off in pursuit of the dream. Complete and utter dedication to the sport. But on top of that, what a magnanimous man in defeat and an amazing classy ambassador for our sport. His day will come again I hope. @fooch97 in a similar vein, classy at the end after an incredible ten birdie final round. He said his man has another major in him, he’s not wrong and the margins are so fine with such incredible athletes. As people, they all win for me. Pure class. 👌🏼
He was an 18 year old that I was sure would be successful. Little did I know he would be an historical figure in the game! Nice young guy, seems a really good man. Very happy for him.👍👏 Rory, enormous respect for someone who struggles and overcomes. So deserving! Say hi soon👍
Oh my! Officially old. I first walked with Rory at Carnoustie. He was 18. Just saw his interview, and he is graying at the temples! Yikes. Time marches on.
What is allegiance? Is it loyalty to absolutely anything a person does, right or wrong. Or is it a sense of I will be there even if you are wrong, but I will try to make you see the truth?
Greene: What country are you from?
Reporter: The UK
Greene: We don’t give a crap about your opinion.. why don’t you go back to your country. This is an American journalist.
Second Reporter: I’d like to hear your answer to what she’s asking
This is Rhea Bullos, she's 11 and couldn't afford to buy sport shoes to compete, so she covered her feet with plasters and drew Nike logo on them. And guess what, she won 3 gold medals (400, 800 and 1500m)
Pete Hegseth removed Colin Powell’s name from a list of notable Americans, buried at Arlington National Cemetery. Hegseth also removed the names of every person of color and every woman on the same list. Only white men were left in place.
