(Reuters) - Rory McIlroy has little interest in following Jason Day's example and teaming up with a so-called superstar caddie, the Northern Irishman said in the wake of Day's decision to hire the sport's best known bagman.

Day coaxed Steve Williams out of retirement starting at the recent U.S. Open, saying he thought the veteran caddie's experience would be an asset as he tried to play his way back to world number one status.
