Rory McIlroy ‘ready to play’ as he focuses on major bid amid divorce proceedings

RORY McILROY DECLINED to make any comment on his impending divorce as he looks to turn his recent superb form into a long overdue fifth major title.

A spokesperson for McIlroy released a short statement on Tuesday which confirmed the news and “stressed Rory’s desire to ensure this difficult time is as respectful and amicable as possible. He will not be making any further comment”. Advertisement Before that, McIlroy had spoken of his recent victories in the Zurich Classic and last week’s Wells Fargo Championship, form which resembles that of 2014 when he won the Open at Royal Liverpool and the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational before lifting the Wanamaker Trophy at Valhalla.

“The golf course is a little different than it was 10 years ago, a little longer. A couple little minor changes but for the most part pretty much the same that I can remember. Despite that confidence, recent history suggests it will be an American player lifting the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday, with the last eight editions of the US PGA won by a home favourite.
