Rory McIlroy shares ‘awkward’ interview with Amanda Balionis after PGA Tour win eight months on from divorce drama
After winning his first ever event at Pebble Beach, Rory McIlroy spoke with CBS Sports’ Amanda Balionis in a post-final round interview.
McIlroy blew away the competition, finishing two strokes ahead of his friend Shane Lowry to end his weekend in northern California at 21-under par.
Following his first win at the historic course, McIlroy addressed what it meant to win at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
Some people would argue that the golf courses I have won on are are not up to a Pebble Beach or obviously an Augusta or whatever,’ McIlroy joked.
‘But to win at one of the cathedrals of golf is really really cool. I knew today was gonna be tough, it was gonna be exciting, there were so many guys around the lead.
‘And I guess I had to… with it being Pebble Beach I had to put it to the back of my mind and just go out there and try to shoot a score, which I was able to.
But yeah really cool – to have that walk up 18 to take it all in was really cool.’
Longtime golf fans were quick to point out how ‘awkward’ the interview between the two was considering the events of 2024.
