Gorgeous model backing Rory Mcllroy to win The Open says he has ‘a great butt’

American model and golf super fan Margaux Brooke has backed Rory McIlroy to claim his second Claret Jug this week at The Open Championship.

The Royal Liverpool Golf Club is set to play host to the oldest golf major in history this week, with McIlroy amongst the favourites to win The Open. The 34-year-old has not won a major since the 2014 PGA Championship.

That same year, McIlroy won The Open at Royal Liverpool, finishing up at -17 to beat out American Rickie Fowler and Sergio Garcia by two shots.

The Northern Irishman has been in fine form of late, narrowly missing out on winning the US Open in June, before bouncing back last week to claim the Scottish Open title, which he won on the very last hole.

And speaking exclusively to Daily Star Sport, Brooke, who recently took part in The Open Invitational alongside the likes of Jermaine Jenas, Jordan Pickford and Bradley Walsh, reckons now is the time for McIlroy to win his second Claret Jug.

Brooke said: "I think Rory’s been getting so close this whole year and I mean now he’s won the Scottish Open, I don’t know if that’s maybe something where he’ll be like ‘oh I don’t need the Open, I’m good’.

Do you think Rory McIlroy could end his major drought this week? Let us know in the comments section below.

"But I don’t think his personality is like that at all. So for me personally I think Rory can absolutely win and I hope he does, I support him all the way."

A huge golf fan herself, Brooke got back into the sport she played in high school during the Covid-19 pandemic, due to the fact it could be played outdoors.

And the model also revealed that her love of McIlroy initially stemmed from the fact she found him cute, which later blossomed into an appreciation of his impressive game. However, that did not stop Brooke from claiming the four-time major winner has "a great butt."

She added: "Rory is my favourite. He's always been my favourite. I think it just started honestly because I thought he was really cute. He’s got a nice butt!

"It’s the truth! His butt should be praised, it’s a great butt. But he’s just an amazing player. I think his swing out of everyone else's swing, he has my favourite swing on the tour.

"I think it's just so clean and beautiful. And I've seen him play in person as well and I just think he's such a wonderful athlete."
