This morning, he sent a text message to fellow Nike golfer and former world #1
From Jason Sobel at Golf Channel:
Rory McIlroy on a text message he got from Tiger Woods this morning: "He told me to get my finger out of my ass and win this week."

It's been a generally awful start to the year for McIlroy. But he played really well in his last competitive round (a final-round 65 at Doral), so maybe he'll turn things around at the Houston Open this week.
Tiger and Rory appeared in a Nike commercial earlier this year. But this is the first sign that they actually have some sort of friendship.
Let's hope there's more of this:
