Golfer Rory McIlroy’s 2025 has been quite eventful, but his golfing game got pretty strange for a second during Saturday’s The Open round at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Island.
While McIlroy was trying to get his ball into better position on one hole, he hit his ball and, somehow, another golf ball appeared out of the Earth. It was like an unintentional magic trick. Here’s one ball; now, here’s two!
The look on McIlroy’s face summed up what a strange sensation it is to go for a golf swing, only to have another random golf ball pop up into the air. He got his actual golf ball out of the rough, but he was left holding the surprise golf ball for all the bewildered onlookers.
McIlroy’s golf career is anything but expected, so chalk this up as yet another fascinating Rory moment on the green.
