Wayne Riley was spotted dressing as Elvis Presley during the final round of the Open Championship. He got so into character that he also performed one of the legendary artist's songs.

Wayne Riley is a retired Australian golfer who has been a two-time winner on the DP World Tour. Since retiring from the tour, he has been working as an on-course commentator for Sky Sports. This week, he has been entertaining the fans with his style.

On Sunday, July 21, Sky Sports posted a video on X where Riley arrived at Royal Troon dressed in Elvis' attire. Besides, he also sang Presley's famous song, 'All Shook Up.' Here's the clip:


Wayne Riley comes in support of Rory McIlroy and his caddie

A few days ago, Wayne Riley extended his support to Rory McIlroy amid the criticism of the golfer and his caddie, Harry Diamond.

"I mean, honestly, who are these guys to criticise Rory McIlroy? Get a life," Riley said as per Mirror Sport. "You think Rory McIlroy doesn't know what a good caddie is? One of his best mates is on the bag and they have won all sorts of championships."
"Where were they all a couple of years ago when he was going up the last hole of 'The Green Mile' at Quail Hollow when Harry said 'Just play it out there'? Great bit of caddying, we heard it all. Where were critics then? They didn't say anything."

Wayne Riley added that Diamond came under scrutiny just because McIlroy had failed to win the US Open. He said it's not Diamond's job to putt for the Northern Irishman.

"Rory is going to pull whatever club he wants; Rory controls his own destiny. That's what makes him great," he concluded.

However, a few days after Riley's comments, McIlroy made an early exit from the Open Championship after missing the cut. it was his first missed cut at the majors since last year's Masters Tournament.
