Watch! Fox News reporter calls McIlroy a 'leprechaun'

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.
