Bob MacIntyre unhappy as Rory McIlroy drives green while he's putting out!

Bob MacIntyre was not best pleased with Rory McIlroy during the second round of the Dunhill Links on the DP World Tour. 

That was after McIlroy drove the green at the par-4 14th while MacIntyre was standing over his 10-footer for birdie.

As MacIntyre contemplated the line of his putt, McIlroy smashed his drive down the fairway and it bounded into the heart of the green. 

It should be noted the hole is playing 390 yards this week, but it downhill and downwind.

MacIntyre turned around to the tee box and stood still for a few moments, clearly unhappy to have just been disturbed. 

The Scot then continued to stand still as McIlroy's playing partner Billy Horschel also fired away down the hole.

But Horschel missed the green well left. 

Sky Sports commentator Rich Beem said: "Bob seems a little annoyed by that."

Nick Dougherty chimed in: "Yeah, definitely bristling a little there is Bob."

Ewen Murray added: "Rory is preparing his apology by the looks of it!" 

On-course commentator Iona Stephen then confirmed MacIntyre was "not a happy chappy" after seeing McIlroy drive while he was still on the green.

MacIntyre would thankfully make his birdie putt. 

McIlroy also made a birdie. 

The World No.3 will no doubt be offering an apology to MacIntyre after the round. 

MacIntyre unfortunately found the burn with his second shot into the par-4 18th and it would lead to a double-bogey.

He signed for a level-par 72 to remain at 5-under par for the tournament.

McIlroy carded a second conscutive round of 69 to bump himself up to 6-under par.

But it was a day of what might have been for McIlroy, who just could not warm the putter up. 

Both players will be looking to take it low on the Old Course at St Andrews on Saturday as they trail by a long way right now. 

Nico Colsaerts fired a brilliant 65 at Carnoustie to vault to 14-under par, a score matched by Cameron John, who posted a 68 at St Andrews.

McIlroy and MacIntyre are both playing alongside their fathers at the Dunhill Links this week. 

MacIntyre has enjoyed a golden season in 2024 with two victories on the PGA Tour. 

His first came at the RBC Canadian Open with his father Dougie on the bag.

The second then came on home soil at the Genesis Scottish Open, a co-sanctioned event on the PGA Tour and DP World Tour. 

McIlroy has not had his best stuff this year but he is still well clear in the season-long DP World Tour Rankings.

Should he go on to win the Race to Dubai in November, which looks like a certainty right now, then he will match late great Seve Ballesteros' feat of six Harry Vardon trophies.
