After Phil Mickelson was accused of seeking to bet on the outcome of the 2012 Ryder Cup, fellow golfer Rory McIlroy has weighed in.
“At least he can bet on the Ryder Cup this year because he won’t be a part of it,” McIlroy, 34, quipped to ESPN reporters on Thursday, August 10, after completing his first round at the FedEx St. Jude Championship.

He was feeling supremely confident that the American squad led by Tiger Woods, Bubba Watson, and Phil himself was about to reclaim the Cup from the Euros,” Walters wrote. “He was so confident that he asked me to place a $400,000 wager for him on the U.S. team to win. I could not believe what I was hearing.”
Walters allegedly told Mickelson that he “lost [his] f—king
