Rory - the man from the land of "giant rocks and tall grass"

Rory McIlroy on Late Night with Jimmy FallonRory McIlroy made a brief, awkward appearance on NBC’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday.

Fallon didn’t seem to know where to go with the interview, which was over before it began. Still, there were a few highlights, not to mention a massive plug for Jumeirah.

Fallon: Rory you are unbelievable. You are the greatest golfer right now in the world, I would say.

Rory: So would I!

Asked if it was weird to be beating his boyhood idol Tiger Woods, Rory said: “It might be weird for him, I think it’s great!”

Don’t miss his explanation of the FedEx Cup. Priceless.
