After getting fifth place in the Texas Children’s Houston Open, Rory’s winnings placed his total career earnings to around a hundred million dollars from the PGA Tour. This makes him the second player ever to achieve this large amount of money, with Tiger Woods being the first. With the great career that he has led so far, I would say that he most definitely earns that money.
This Northern Irish golfer has had an impressive track record ever since he was fifteen years old. His early beginnings saw many victories and close defeats that already put him on the board as a prodigy. When he officially became a part of the professional world, his wins only got more impressive, with a total of 28 PGA Tour wins under his belt, as well as four major championships.
Rory has always treated the game with respect, which can be seen in how he treats his fellow players. He is often honest with his thoughts about things, but it is always wrapped in a sort of kindness that is not always found with other competitive players. He also goes out of his way to interact with fans and connect with them, making him a fan favorite and easy to root for.
It can be difficult to justify anyone having as much money as Rory, but it cannot be said that his accomplishments are undeserving of praise. His amazing feats and good attitude make for a role model for the kind of sportsmanship that golf should be all about.
