An angry Rory McIlroy told Ryder Cup fans to 'shut the f*** up' on Saturday during a heated moment at Bethpage Black.

McIlroy was preparing to hit the ball on the 16th fairway when several American fans began shouting nearby - with one seemingly shouting 'freedom' before another chimed in.

And the Northern Irishman was not happy with the interruption as he quickly scolded the fans, saying: 'Guys, shut the f*** up!'

The remark drew some jeers from the crowd as McIlroy stepped away from the ball to regroup.

On Friday, McIlroy appeared to give the middle finger to fans during the opening day of the tournament.

During the fourth and final match of the afternoon, McIlroy and Shane Lowry were heckled throughout by the American crowd. 

And after they went two-up at the 11th hole, McIlroy was seemingly triggered by something that was said from the hostile New York crowd.

As he walked off the green alongside Lowry, it looked as if the reigning Masters champion raised his middle finger towards fans.
