Golf ace Rory McIlroy declares his love for Domino's pizza in overheard chat on Tiger Woods' course

Golf ace Rory McIlroy has revealed his favourite pizza is Domino's after he was overheard talking all things fast food on the course.

The Co Down pro golfer was at the Payne’s Valley Cup exhibition match on Tuesday night where he, Justin Rose and Justin Thomas took on Tiger Woods on Woods' new course.

And fans got to hear a candid chat between the pair about their go to choice of pizza as they were mic’d up where Rory revealed his favourite is a Domino's Deluxe with extra sausage.

Whispering whilst Justin Rose was taking a putt Justin Thomas said: “I had some pizza last night. New York pizza man.”

And McIlroy quickly replied: “I tell you what, we’re on this big Domino's kick at this minute. It’s so good I swear to God,"

"Like if you don’t know what the really good local pizza place is, Domino's is like solid.”

“Yeah. You know what you’re gonna get,” Thomas replied. "Do you guys get the same pizza or do you change it up?”

“I get the same. It’s like the Deluxe but I get extra sausage, extra whatever,” McIlroy revealed.

At the end of August, McIlroy and wife Erica Stoll welcomed their first child, a daughter, Poppy Kennedy McIlroy. The couple married in Ashford Castle in 2017. 

McIlroy is not the first high profile person to declare their love for Domino's. Other celeb fans include singer, Lewis Capaldi, TV star, Vogue Williams and comedian Cian Twomey.
