Rory McIlroy praises Kai Trump during charity golf

Rory McIlroy praised Kai Trump during a charity golf round, saying she is "too good for this YouTube golf." This comment highlights a contrast between traditional golf and the rising popularity of YouTube golf content, where Trump has gained over 1 million subscribers in four months. The round took place at Torrey Pines, raising funds for California wildfire victims. Trump impressed McIlroy with a strong shot, leading to their exchange. McIlroy has previously expressed a preference for watching competitive golf over YouTube golf. In a separate incident, McIlroy confronted a heckler at The Players Championship after a fan referenced his past performance at the Masters. He is currently tied for fourth place in the tournament.
