McIlroy teamed up with Shane Lowry to win the Zurich Classic, the PGA Tour's only team event.

NEW ORLEANS — Rory McIlroy is on the TPC Louisiana 19th green stage with a beer in one hand and a microphone in the other. He’s got Mardi Gras beads around his neck standing next to one of his best friends, Shane Lowry, and the drunken New Orleans crowd keeps chanting. “Rory! Rory! Rory!” “Do you know any songs from the 80s?” the bandleader asks. Advertisement And then Journey starts playing.

He got in at the Players Championship with playing partners Spieth and Viktor Hovland. Oh, and the golf has suffered. It’s all relative. He’s still top 30 nearly every week, but has just one PGA Tour finish better than 19th all season. When he finished T22 at the Masters two weeks ago, he got questions about whether he needed to blow up his swing and do a full reset. Then, he went to New Orleans. McIlroy was not locked in this week, at least not for most of the week.
