Daily Herald Incorrectly Calls Rory McIlroy ‘John McIlroy’ in Headline

June 20, 2011 by Larry Brown • Comments

Newspapers making mistakes is nothing new — we just had one The Miami Herald made last week. But there’s a big difference between running the wrong ad in a newspaper and just completely flubbing someone’s name. Sports Grid points out that The Daily Herald somehow called Rory McIlroy “John McIlroy” in their newspaper Monday:

Usually when we write about newspapers making mistakes with their headlines it’s for funny reasons. Someone please explain to me how they got “John McIlroy” because I really can’t figure it out.

Thanks to Ellie P for the picture
