A FOX News reporter was caught on live television calling the world’s top golfer Rory McIlroy a 'leprechaun'.
In the segment on Monday, contributors were discussing McIlroy, who is a doubt to participate in the British Open due to a ruptured ligament in his ankle.
During the love broadcast, Fox ‘Outnumbered' co-host Harris Faulkner said the group were "still reacting to that Rory McIlroy story", before being interrupted by an unseen reporter.
"He's a leprechaun, I can't stand him," the reporter can be heard saying.
Ms Faulkner took to Twitter shortly after the incident to say she didn't hear incident when live on air.
Ugh, did NOT hear that said when we were live. MY reaction was re: his reputation of the not-so-nice fiance firing. https://t.co/uB20MbF0ey
