For Rory McIlroy, travelers’ perfect species of observer “to open us

Rory Mcilroy skipped last year’s passenger championship, still licking their wounds from the devastating defeat in Pinehurst. McIlroy’s T-19 in Oakmont was not almost impaired, and so Miclroy, encouraged in the way he poured a glass of wine on Sunday, and then took it into Cromwell, Connecticut, for customized TPC rivers in season.

“Weekly week after the largest championships in these events, sometimes when you’re in claim and try to beat them, it can feel pretty hard to play next week,” McIlroy said on Tuesday. “After a week as I had in Oakmont last week, where you are not exactly in the mix, but you might feel that you find something in your game, you are excited to return and play again …

“This is the perfect kind of haser for which Oakmont was last week.”

McIlroy entered last week, opened in the route, fighting with a new driver after his old man failed a test in front of the PGA. McIlroy is tied up in 47. In Prepeal cavity, then missed the cut 12 shots in Canada, where he lost moves in all four aspects, including almost three shots on access.

He arrived in Oakmont Irritated, and after 6-hour 41 seconds nine to film 74, McIlroy’s emotions cooked during the second round, where that driver broke in long term and broke at least to pieces. After the press conference, McIlroy refused all media the first two competition days, then joined after another 74, “It’s more frustration with you,” I feel like I deserve to do everything I want to do. “

But somewhere on the way McIlroy found a feeling, through the repeatability of the shots, to finish the championship on the field in the moves he had acquired at Tee. And before the Oakmont went out on Sunday, he seemed that he had noticeably optic in front of the media.

“Close,” McIlroy said on Sunday afternoon after closing 67. “I physically feel like my game is there. Just mentally asking me to get my mind right.”

The upcoming schedule of Mciclinroy includes a new home in London and then playing back to Genesis Scottish Open and Open Championship in the Royal Portroad in its native northern Ireland, where it suffered in 2019. year missing weekend.

On Sunday, McIlroy recalled the moment from that Friday in Portrush, where he hit the approached on his back nine, and the crowd roared when the ball hits green, sending McIlroy on the brink of tears.

“Just that support and that love from your own people … I was unprepared for that,” McIlroy said. “I just have to catch myself in the right box to feel those feelings again.”

This week, at the TPC Reku Highlands (not New York City with a high row like last year), will continue the searches for right.

In five careers, McIlroy never finished outside the top 20. He tied up for the seventh in his last trip to TPC River Highlands, two years ago.

“If you adjusted in Oakmont short-weekly week, it’s like an automatic Bogey, if not more,” McIlroy said. “Sometimes when I get back to Europe or come to a tournament like this, you have to remind yourself, no, you can go to the pin.

“You can actually fire on needles.”
