SAN FRANCISCO: Rory McIlroy on Wednesday said golf should stage more of its biggest tournaments at public courses to make the game more accessible.

"I've always said that golf, everywhere in the world, but I think especially in the United States, it can become more accessible still, and I think bringing the biggest tournaments in the world to public courses is a step in the right direction," four-time major winner McIlroy told reporters. "But at the same time, it's very refreshing that we do come to places like here, Bethpage, Torrey Pines."It is important to let the public see us on golf courses that they've played before, that are accessible for them, that aren't too expensive to get on."
