WATCH: Cam Smith caught laughing at Rory McIlroy meme in LIV practice round
Cameron Smith was caught laughing at a meme about Rory McIlroy before the LIV Golf Invitational Series event in Chicago at Rich Harvest Farms.
Cameron Smith was caught giggling over a "bitching" Rory McIlroy meme ahead of LIV Golf Chicago.
Smith was playing in a practice round at Rich Harvest Farms when a member of the DrunkByTheTurn team caught his attention.
A few seconds earlier, Pat Perez, who has withdrawn from the antitrust lawsuit against the PGA Tour, also appeared to be tickled by the content.
And this was Smith's reaction...

The incident comes in the same week McIlroy, 33, said he did not want to see the LIV Golf Invitational Series players selected for the Ryder Cup.
McIlroy said he "just couldn't help myself" from being outspoken against the LIV players because he feels so passionately about the subject.
Shane Lowry, too, also waxed lyrical on the subject as he claimed he misjudged his earlier remarks about LIV.

"I've said to a couple of players that have gone to LIV, 'why do you play the game?' If you play the game for money, maybe you should probably do it. If you play the game for trophies, you shouldn't," Lowry said.

Not everyone agrees with McIlroy though, as Matthew Fitzpatrick, who is playing the Italian Open on the DP World Tour this week, said he just wants the strongest team playing at the Marco Simone Golf & Country Club in Rome next year.
