That Time Rory McIlroy And A Trash-Talking Robot Hit Golf Balls

Rory McIlroy is the No. 2 ranked golfer in the world and has two major championships under his belt at the age of 24. He's been tapped the heir apparent to Tiger Woods' throne. But what everyone really wants to know is, how does the young lad stack up against a shit-talking robot in a contest of hitting golf balls into washing machines? The folks behind the European golf tour made a promotional video which answers that very question. Highlights are below, and please note that we honestly did not make any of these lines up.

Robot: Losing to a robot is a bit like losing to Martin Kaymer.
Rory: I've lost to him a few times.

Robot: Just to warn you I have GPS.
Rory: That's okay, I have a nice swing.
