Rory McIlroy Sharp – Even perfect, occasionally – in the first round of his PGA tour season

Pebble beach, California – After locking in Swing Studio, Rory Mcilroy is now becoming more enjoyable of some best landscapes in golf.

McIlroy’s late swing change seems to be paid already, because he marked a series of iron shots on Thursday – including slam-dunk as – To start your PGA TOUR season with a 6-less 66 in the Spyglass hill during the first round of AT & T pebble beach Pro-am.

She finally committed to change swing after a busy two years, McIlroy opened the study last October and hit the ball in the screen, incapable of seeing the flight ball. He tried to work on the return positions that his swing would make more effective.

Early yields were positive. McIlroy closed his year with a victory at the World Trip Championship, and then, for one of the few times in his career, playing deep into December, both competitively, as well as socially, and socially, with excursions to the Ohoopee match, New Zealand and Grove XXIII for a member member.

All in all, McIlroy postponed clubs for only six or seven days. Most years turn off it all month December.

“I think he was holding me a little sharp,” he said. “I could hit the earth to run when I got back to him.”

He looked like a full Sprint on Thursday in Spyjass, two courses in renovated rotation for the tour signature of the event along the Monterey spectacular peninsula.

McIlroy led the field within the distance of the ride, on average 345 meters from Tee, and missed four green in regulation combined several feet during 6 in a circle of 6 banks. He finished the day only two shots back to Russell Henley.

Prominently came in 119 yard 15^thwhich plays even shorter downhill. Starting on the back nine, McIlroy dated from the other three times in the last four holes. But on a short couple.

It turns out that it wasn’t good – it was perfect.

His ball crashed into the front lip and sank into the bottom of the cup for his second career ACE on tour.

“I don’t see a lot of balls nowadays go straight to the hole and stay in the hole,” he said after that. “Pretty lucky because he could go out and returned to the water or do anything. It was a good momentum, a good clove.”

It wasn’t almost his last hole either.

The wedge game was the main point of emphasis for McIlroy in the last few years. If he drives the ball, as he usually works, he has about 50 shots per week with within 150 meters. He recently talked to the sports psychologist Bob Rotel on “getting a dead end” from that scoring range.

“If you rock in a row, the ball won’t blame much from that distance,” he said. “So, just take the dead goal and make the most of these tee shots that I hit to board that range.”

Mciclroy knocked that part of his game over the years, but they realized that there was still a place to improve – he was ranked at 115^th In the tour last season with 125-150 meters and 49^th ranging from 100 to 125 courtyards.

“In the past, I wasn’t sure of the wedges from that distance; I would play a little right or left of the needle and be a little more careful with my goal,” he said. “While I’m now, if I feel confident with a wedge swing, it’s easier for me to take a dead goal and try to guess it as close as possible.”

On 1 other season, McIlroy already looks much self-confident.
