I can't take this anymore. I'm happy for Matt Fitzpatrick, and I know you are too, and I'm happy for the sport of golf. But sitting here alone, on another bleak Sunday night, watching the fireflies outside the window, I can't escape my own truth.
Should the PGA Tour emerge from this existential crisis and remain the dominant force in professional golf, it’ll be in no small part due to pro-bono work from the law firm of Rahm, McIlroy & Thomas.
It was quite a contrast. One day after one player tried his best not to answer questions, another did exactly the opposite. Two days before he tees off in his 14th US Open, Rory McIlroy stood before the assembled media and offered his usual honest take on the world of golf.
Amid all the chaotic content surrounding the launch of the Saudi-backed LIV Golf series, Rory McIlroy has been adamant that he will remain loyal to the PGA Tour. Fitting, then, that he picked up his 21st PGA Tour victory just one day after the completion of the first LIV Golf Invitational event outside London.
McIlroy carries just two wedges aside from his pitching wedge, a 54 and 60-degree but he used them well enough to rank second for the week in scrambling.
