Rory McIlroy celebrated his win at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans by singing "Don't Stop Believin'" while sipping beer.
On Sunday, April 28, McIlroy claimed the title at TPC Louisiana alongside Shane Lowry after beating Chad Ramey and Martin Trainer in the playoff. This was his 25th win on the PGA Tour and Lowry's third.
Following the win, Rory McIlroy and Lowry went to the TPC Louisiana's 19th green stage for some post-event celebration. While both were holding cans of beer, McIlroy also had a microphone. With a live band playing in the background, he joined them to sing Journey's popular track, "Don't Stop Believin'".

Will Rory McIlroy compete at the CJ Cup against Byron Nelson?
After competing nearly every week for the past month, Rory McIlroy will take a much-deserved rest this week and has opted out of the CJ Cup with Byron Nelson.
The CJ Cup Byron Nelson is the PGA Tour's next stop, which will take place from Thursday, May 2, to Sunday, May 5, at TPC Craig Ranch. Although McIlroy is not competing this week, the 156-player field at the event will have some star power, with the likes of Jordan Spieth, Will Zalatoris, Tom Kim, and defending champion Jason Day competing this week.
The total purse size of the CJ Cup Byron Nelson will be $9.5 million, with the winner bagging a paycheck of $1.71 million.
