It’s boring but it’s my life.
Rory McIlroy is currently preparing for a run at the Northern Trust Open, starting tomorrow, but he still took time out to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Happy Gilmore then hit the gym.
Insatiable.
The Northern Irishman is a massive fan of the Adam Sandler, ice-hockey-hopeful-becomes-golf-sensation movie and recited one of his favourite lines for the PGA Tour cameras.

Revelry over, McIlroy hit the gym and posted a clip of the final set of an intense squat work-out.
You can’t help but watch ’til the end.

McIlroy was not finished there. He took to Twitter to, jokingly, boast about how he had done a bundle more squats.
Re the squats it was the last set of 3×3 at 120kg(265lbs). Did 3×10 at 100kg(225lbs) before that. I'm 165lbs. I'm a golfer not body builder

This was the best of the hundreds of responses McIlroy received:
.@McIlroyRory hey Ror, don't be the guy who brags about his workout and always carries around a gallon of water. Saying that as ur friend
