“Yesterday at this time I used the word leprechaun to describe golfer Rory McIlroy.”
The way that Lisa ‘Kennedy’ Montgomery started, you’d be led to believe that a wholehearted apology was on its way.
But the manner in which the Fox presenter continued confirmed anything but a “sorry” was coming.
“I love sports, I love golf, but I am not a fan of Rory’s.
“Mostly for the way he treated tennis great Caroline Wozniacki and discarded her like a piece of chewed gum when he broke her heart and broke off their engagement in a short phone conversation.
“That’s worse than breaking up on a Post-it… I called Rory McIlroy a leprechaun and believe me I wanted to call him much worse.”
Not a whole lot there in the way of a rational explanation for the racially inappropriate term. And she will have done nothing to win back any Irish fans with her closing comments… “As you know, some of my best friends are leprechauns and they also have tremendous senses of humour. Thank you!”
