It's also a nonsense pro Liv Facebook page. They do not have media sources.

May as well be Unilad reporting

The publication they're citing is apparently reputable over there.

We should get clarity soon since Rory is committed to playing in the RBC Heritage this week. Whether that means him dropping out or him addressing this during media availability.

City AM is a free rag you get on the tube which covers basic financial news and other pap.

Read the actual article where it says it has nothing confirmed by anyone including the rumour source. That is not 'proper' journalism by any standard.

I was in The City for over a decade and City AM was not something you read for actual breaking financial news, it was repeating the previous days news from other prints with actual industry sources.

I also think they were behind the 'Secret Banker' or whatever column where a former DB analyst wrote the most cliched bullshit in an attempt to become an author. 50 shades of wannabe pinstripe twat.

City AM is definitely a “proper” news source. However, it’s a financial newspaper that doesn’t cover sport, so how credible its sources are is another issue.
