Rory McIlroy’s self-assessment of his work at Royal Liverpool following his final round of the 151st British Open raised more than a few eyebrows.
With all of those factors in play, there were understandably lofty expectations for McIlroy from the outside, expectations that surely paled in comparison to his own.failed to capture his fifth career major championship trophy.“I improved on my score every day,’’ McIlroy said, referring to his scores of 71, 70, 69 and 68.Sunday marked 3,288 days since McIlroy won his last of four major championships, the 2014 PGA Championship.
Instead of making a loud statement, McIlroy was just 2-under through six holes and finished just 2-under for the round that had potential to be a big-time charge for him. McIlroy, after his final round, was adamant about not dwelling on what he hasn’t been able to do in the past nine years and instead focusing on what he has still in front of him at age 34.“I don’t think that way,’’ he said. “I think about trying to go and win a fourth FedExCup here in a couple weeks’ time, go try and win a fifth Race to Dubai, go and win a fifth Ryder Cup. I just keep looking forward.
