Quote by Rory McIlroy
My mom and dad worked very hard to give me the best chance in - no

My mom and dad worked very hard to give me the best chance in – not just in golf but in life. You know, I was an only child, you know, my dad worked three jobs at one stage. My mom worked night shifts in a factory. – Rory McIlroy
