McIlroy calls DeChambeau's behaviour "performative" at The Open

Rory McIlroy criticised Bryson DeChambeau after the American received a two-stroke penalty in the second round of the 2026 Open Championship. DeChambeau's lengthy dispute with tournament officials delayed the release of third-round tee times. McIlroy described the behaviour as "performative" and done "for attention," adding he is "not particularly fond" of DeChambeau.
