On Tuesday, January 16, the 48-year-old Englishman posted a notice on his Instagram story, taking a dig with out naming anybody. He stated:
“Being two faced is a terrible trait… I’d be embarrassed having to change my story now and come out and try and look smart. I’m happy to sit down and have it out. I will happily say it as it is. Enough of the Bulls**t.”
Many followers assumed that Poulter’s feedback have been directed towards his former Ryder Cup teammate, McIlroy, particularly given the latter’s current shift in tone in direction of LIV Golf. Upon realizing this, the Englishman posted one other story to make clear issues. He wrote:
“Just for clarity I applaud Rory McIlroy for his comments a few weeks ago. It takes a lot to say the things he said. Nothing that can’t be fixed over a good cup of coffee. It’s the others who blatantly choose to try and NOW become hero’s all of a sudden. You have to kidding me. That will NOT be fixed over a coffee.”
Followers on-line had blended reactions to Poulter’s feedback. Whereas just a few agreed along with his statements, many did not purchase into his phrases. Listed here are among the reactions:
“So Rory’s okay because he’s on your Ryder Cup Team but the others should be ashamed? That’s 💩”
“Poulter insinuating that the LIV guys have looked smart whatsoever during anything that’s happened in these last few years is certainly a take. The arrogance of some of these dead fish that took money bc they couldn’t earn it with their play anymore is really something. Gross.”
“the game of golf peaked on November 1st, 2023”
“Two faced was the players who pledged their loyalty and commitment via statements to the PGA and then left for LIV the moment a larger offer came in”
“I love this guy. He is saying the truth !”
“Golf channel and other pro pgat media that slandered LIV players at every opportunity.”
“Ian poulter is a legend – they called him a terrorist supporter for making the switch to LIV – by the same two faced people now scrambling to do a deal with the PIF”
“Well… he’s not wrong! Rory was a massive PGA Tour SIMP hating LIV mouthpiece until Rahm left.”
“Being greedy, and two faced pretending to grow the game is far worse.”
