Rory McIlroy with one of the funniest club tosses of all-time (yes, really!)

World number three Rory McIlroy was filmed getting hot under the collar during the second round of the PGA Tour's BMW Championship.

Rory McIlroy's frustration boiled over in the funniest way imaginable during the second round of the BMW Championship

The Northern Irishman carded a 1-under 71 on Friday at Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado.

His second round was relatively ordinary as he turned in 1-under and played holes 10 to 16 in level par. 

Things took a humorous turn, though, when reached the par-5 17th as he staked the claim for perhaps one of the worst club tosses of all time. 

The four-time major champion, 35, missed the fairway with his drive. 

He knew as soon his golf ball came off the club face that his shot was no good as he leaned left. 

After a few 'fore' shouts, McIlroy tentatively threw his club to the floor. 

But his TaylorMade Qi10 took one skip off the ground and promptly went into the water.

Cue a red-faced McIlroy sheepishly walking over to retrieve the chief. 

McIlroy managed to salvage a par at the hole. 

He was perhaps still a bit frustrated on the tee box as he was coming off a three-putt at the hole prior. 

Watch what happened here:

Incredible. 

It has to be said, though, this club 'toss' has nothing on his outburst of anger at the 2015 WGC-Cadillac Championship at Doral. 

McIlroy was fined $25,000 by the PGA Tour after he ferociously launched his 3-iron into a lake. 

The fine was later reduced to $5,000 after he said sorry on TV. 

McIlroy wasn't the only player to lose his cool on day two. 

World number one Scottie Scheffler also got animated after he watched one of his approach shots sail over the green.
