To whom it concerns, On a jubilant 18th green that Sunday, I, along with hundreds of other irish golf fans were celebrating 'our' irishness. I threw my flag at Rory as he passed by to sign his scorecard. It did not get his attention and was whisked immediately by the security man on his right who then ran to the barrier and returned it to me. Stories about how Rory 'dissed' the flag or 'threw the flag to the ground' are all UNTRUE . Sorry to the McIlroy family for my action.
