Rory McIlroy is currently the No. 3 golfer in the world, is a few years into a $200 million contract with Nike, has already won four Major championships at just 26, and, apparently, loves giving away free stuff to his fans.
On Tuesday, while getting ready for the HSBC Championship in Shanghai, McIlroy spent some time responding to fan comments on his Facebook page, including one fan jokingly asking for a new Nike driver. Though most people would probably play it off as a fun joke from a fan, McIlroy went the other direction and actually gave him one. Check out the comment exchange below:

McIlroy, it turns out, had an extra driver just lying around and seemed happy enough to share it with his eager fan. But, of course, the drivers McIlroy has "lying around" are probably a bit different than than what most of us have lying around in our garages.
In fact, whatever Nike "covert" driver McIlroy is sending the lucky fan will probably be worth quite a bit of dough, which naturally led to some other Facebook commentators making the obvious eBay jabs and jokes:
