Rory McIlroy Ryder Cup Car up for Auction

Kevinmarkham

The police squad car, driven by Deputy Chief Pat Rollins, which rescued Rory McIlroy in time to get him to his Ryder Cup Singles match is going up for auction.

Anyone care to venture who would buy a Ford with 80,000 miles on the clock. Here's my top five:

1. Davis Love III, or the next US Ryder Cup captain, who will use it for team target practice come 2014… a cut-out face of Rory laughing at them from the back window.

2. Medinah Country Club could use it to dispense drinks by the 1st tee, with everyone having to sit in Rory’s seat to be served. Or use it as the security ‘hut’ at the golf club entrance. Or cut off the top and use it as a flowerbed behind the 17th green.

3. Donald Trump, who will send it to his Trump Scotland course, where it will sit on the dunes above one of the greens as another example of the course’s “Natural” features… with the radio channel open and a recording of Trump lambasting the wind turbines on the horizon.

4. The local Driving Range, doing pretty much what Davis Love III has in mind above. Probably positioned at the 300 yard mark, with special prizes for anyone who can hit it.

5. The next European Ryder Cup Captain, because wouldn’t that be a psychological slap in the face when the Americans turn up at Gleneagles and get driven to the practice range in ‘that’ car!


Any other suggestions?

Wouldn't mind getting it for my local take away!

Or myself for that matter!!! despite my best efforts I tend to cut tee times too tight... You have first hand experience Kevin hate when I do it, but I do it far too often. Need a shrink rather than golf pro

Or a better alarm clock?!!
