Arnold Palmer angered by Luke Donald and Rory McIlroy snub

Arnold Palmer expresses his anger at Rory McIlroy and Luke Donald after the pair choose to not compete at the legend's tournament.

Arnold Palmer has revealed that he is angry with Rory McIlroy's and Luke Donald's decisions not to play in his PGA tour event this week.

The duo have chosen not to compete at the Bay Hill Invitational and Palmer has expressed his disappointment.

Palmer said: "I'm certainly not happy that those fellas chose not to come this year.

"To have a couple of the top players internationally and US not here, I'm kind of sorry for that, but I think we can get that squared away and maybe we'll entice them to come in the future."

McIlroy has asked to meet with Palmer to discuss his choice, a request which confuses Palmer.

"I'm not sure that I know exactly what he wants me to tell him or what he wants to hear from me, but I look forward to seeing him and talking to him," the 82-year-old said.

McIlroy is currently in the middle of a three-week break.
