Rory McIlroy was a media darling after winning the Players Championship on St. Patrick's Day, but the 29-year-old Irishman wasn't as jovial following a 2 and 1 loss to Tiger Woods in the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play Sweet 16 on Saturday.

"I want to apologize to the media for not giving them any of my time after the match this morning.
