In case you've missed it, our video of the week below is a must-watch! If you want to know who Rory's favourite female tennis player is, then watch him get grilled in this hilarious interview.
Well done to Rory for taking it all in good spirit! On a more serious note, McIlroy has been talking recently about next season - and he's already focusing on the Majors.
"Next season I just need to make sure the Majors match up to what I am doing outside of them," said the world number two. "My Major Championship performances haven't been what I wanted, but if you take the Majors away I feel like I have played pretty well and had a good season."
The 27-year-old didn't genuinely threaten to add to the four Majors he already has to his name - although he did claim the Tour Championship and FedEx Cup.
We're talking about a golfer with some pretty lofty standards here. Perhaps it's time for you to focus on next year's 'Big Ones'. Using the winter months is the ideal time to get your game in shape so you hit the ground running when the new season starts.

This year's Turkey Trot was won by Billy Goodwin and Billy Goodwin Senior with an impressive 44 points, the Ladies top prize was won by Maureen Hope-Watts and Judy Gibson with 41 points. Nearest the pins were won by Rick Warley, Neal Jones, Andy Steven and Martin Price. The event was well supported by 80 players; we hope you all enjoyed your day.
We had our annual staff versus members match on Friday 25th November, and regrettably I have to report a defeat for the staff. The members won for the second year running. John and I had a great time on the course but also lost to a very solid performance from Andrew Chapman and John Doucy, who showed us how to play around the Old Course.
We had a successful sale over the Black Friday weekend and we would like to thank all those that shopped with us. We still have a few great deals while stocks last!
