Bob MacIntyre heads home to Scotland to party hard with girlfriend
Bob MacIntyre is heading home to Scotland to party with his girlfriend, family and friends.
Bob MacIntyre has told CBS reporter Amanda Balionis he will be heading home to Oban, Scotland, to party hard with his girlfriend, family and friends after landing his maiden title on the PGA Tour.
MacIntyre, 27, carded a gutsy final-round 68 to see out a deserved one-shot victory at the RBC Canadian Open.
The win was extra sweet for the Scot as he had his father Dougie on the bag for the first time in competition since Q-School in 2018.
The win marks MacIntyre's first on the PGA Tour, in his first full season on the circuit, as well as the third of his pro career having already won twice on the DP World Tour.
The European Ryder Cup hero becomes just the sixth Scot to win in the modern era on the PGA Tour.
In one clip on Sunday night, MacIntyre was seen phoning home to his mother and telling her the 'mortgage was paid'.
MacIntyre won a career-best $1.7m first prize for winning the 2024 RBC Canadian Open.
MacIntyre, who now vaults from 76th to 39th in the Official World Golf Rankings, earned an invite in this week's Memorial Tournament at famed Muirfield Village after topping the latest Aon Swing 5 Rankings.
The Memorial, hosted by record 18-time major champion Jack Nicklaus, marks the seventh of eight $20m signature events on the PGA Tour in 2024.
But when pressed by CBS' Amanda Balionis as to whether his Dad Dougie will remain on the bag for a busy upcoming summer schedule, which also includes the US Open next week, MacIntyre replied his father will take a well deserved holiday while he and his girlfriend Shannon head home to party.
"No, Dad is on the flight home on Monday, and I think me and my girlfriend might go home on Monday as well and just have a hell of a party back home," an emotional MacIntyre told Balionis on the 18th green.
MacIntyre officially confirmed his WD from the Memorial on Monday.
