A Texas Longhorns golfer attending a practice round at The Players was removed following an incident with Rory McIlroy.

Rory McIlroy took matters into his own hands at The Players Championship earlier this week after being heckled by a fan.

When practicing for Thursday’s opening round of The Players Championship, a college golfer heckled the four-time major winner from behind the 18th tee box at the Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., course, with McIlroy later taking matters into his own hands — literally.
