Rory McIlroy Gave a Perfect Response to Brandel Chamblee's Weightlifting Critique
By Michael Shamburger

Brandel Chamblee ran his mouth again and this time bothered Rory McIlroy. Chamblee claimed on a conference call that McIlroy should be wary of Tiger Woods’ example in the gym.
"“I say it with a lot of trepidation, because it’s a different era for sure,” Chamblee said, “and I don’t know the full extent of what he’s doing, but when I see the things he’s doing in the gym, I think of what happened to Tiger Woods. And I think more than anything of what Tiger Woods did early in his career with his game was just an example of how good a human being can be, what he did towards the middle and end of his career is an example to be wary of. That’s just my opinion. And it does give me a little concern when I see the extensive weightlifting that Rory is doing in the gym.” “Thus far,” he added, “there’s been no signs that it’s adversely affected his game.”"
McIlroy’s response?

Re the squats it was the last set of 3x3 at 120kg(265lbs). Did 3x10 at 100kg(225lbs) before that. I'm 165lbs. I'm a golfer not body builder

Yep, I think maybe both players, who have reached number one in the world rankings and won major tournaments may know what they’re doing.
McIlroy will make his U.S. debut this week at the Northern Trust Open at Riviera CC.
