He&#8217;s obviously a very loyal friend but at the same time he&#8217;s doing it solely for the purpose for us to go out there and win Major championships, and big tournaments, and that&#8217;s enough for him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Rory McIlroy and Harry Diamond at The Masters  \" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/2A5GSDAa7dsR6a8bN4VohA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/golf_monthly_808\/6965560b0df45360253c1cd79847d154\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-0 size-full\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-3 right-3 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed bottom-0 left-0 right-0 top-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Credit: Getty Images<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Possibly the most high-profile occasion where fans and certain sections of the media were calling for a change on the bag arrived following McIlroy&#8217;s late collapse at the US Open in 2024.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Some external parties felt that McIlroy may have to move on from Diamond if he wanted to win another Major, with one particular bone of contention being a crucial club choice in the closing holes at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/play-pinehurst-no-2-145307326.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Pinehurst No.2;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Pinehurst No.2&quot;}\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">Pinehurst No.2<\/a> which may have cost the Northern Irish duo dear.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Nevertheless, McIlroy stood firm and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.golfmonthly.com\/news\/live\/rory-mcilroy-scottish-open-press-conference\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:fiercely defended his best friend and caddie;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;fiercely defended his best friend and caddie&quot;}\" class=\"link \">fiercely defended his best friend and caddie<\/a>, calling out a couple of detractors by name.
