Rory McIlroy was impressed by the golf ball delivery system at the Showdown. The Showdown was played on December 17 at the Shadow Creek Golf Course and McIlroy won the tournament alongside Scottie Scheffler. The PGA Tour Pros played against LIV golfers Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka.
Following the event, McIlroy uploaded a story on his Instagram, where McIlroy and Scheffler could be seen waiting for the golf ball, and the ball was delivered by a drone in yellow packaging. Later, the drone dropped the ball on the course and it was picked by Bryson DeChambeau.
McIlroy captioned the post, writing:
“Talk about service. @wing delivering golf balls for the @cryptocomofficial Showdown.”
