Rory Apologizes For Merion Club Bender, Which Means It's Worth Another Look!
/I didn't post this one at the time because it was just too soon, but now getting to watch Rory McIlroy bend an iron after dumping a second shot into Cobb's Creek serves as a reminder to all of the young people out there that it is a very special talent to break a club and look good doing it. One of the few talents lacking from Mr. McIlroy's repertoire.
From Supersport:
"I just got frustrated and definitely it was not the right thing to do," he said.
"I would not recommend anyone or anyone watching on TV or any kids to start throwing or bending their 9-irons.
"But the 9-iron is intact and I've got a new shaft this week and it's ready to go."
**Rory says he feels "lost" on the course (not the range) right now after an opening 74 in the Irish Open.
"At the moment, no aspects of my game are strong and I'm just feeling a bit lost at the moment," he said. "It feels good on the range and I can hit all the shots but when I get out on the course it really does not seem to be there.
"Off the tee, I am missing one right and then missing one left and it's just not going where I want it. It gets you in two minds every time you are playing a tee shot.
"The game is just not coming easy to me at the moment and while I was struggling at this point last year, I was able to turn the corner in the middle of the summer and have a great end to my season.
"I don't know whether it's a matter of trying to play my way out of it or just keep grinding away on the range or whatever."
