McIlroy ready for final major of the year

McIlroy ruptured an ankle ligament July 4 while playing soccer with friends.

McIlroy is booked to effectively t shirt off at 19.20at night nearby time period on Thursday alongside Johnson and Spieth.

Okay, he hasn’t played a competitive round since he tied for ninth Shane Lowry in the US Open and will have been idle for 53 days when he tees it up in round one. “I do hope that he comes back and has the confidence – if he’s told that it’s ok – to swing through the ball in the way that he used to”.

Besides the hype of McIlroy saying he is ready to play, the golfing eyes are also on Tiger Woods. “We haven’t really been putting it out there”. “When it’s dry and fast, which it kind of was five years ago, I feel like that place can suit me”.

McIlroy has had some time to knock off the rust from a few unplanned weeks off, and if he’s truly ready to go as he says, he has to be considered a top favorite for the year’s final major. “It’s been a year since I got it back”, he said, according to irishgolfdesk.com.

By October 2010, a number of injuries and a loss of form meant Howell was ranked 569th in the world and it took until his victory in the Dunhill Links at St Andrews in 2013 for him to celebrate reaching the end of what he called a “long, long road from the depths of despair”. “I would encourage any fans who have yet to purchase tickets to act now and join us for a major week ahead”. I was putting when I had the [support] boot on. “And yes, he could be in the Olympics too, depending on how everything goes the next 52 weeks.”?

“I’ve had two really good looks at it, Saturday and yesterday. However to do what I want to do that week, it is 100 %”.

Rory McIlroy, of Northern Ireland, walks off the18th green after a practice round for the PGA Championship golf tournament at Whistling Straits Golf Course on Monday, August 10, 2015 in Haven, Wis. “That’s my main focus this week”, he said.

“I firmly believe having dealt with injury…it’s a pretty hilly golf course“, Golf Channel’s Notah Begay said on a conference call last week.

“I think it sets up well for my game”, Johnson added. “Even if his game is intact, I just don’t know that the physical part of his ankle is going to hold up for the duration of 72 holes”. As for his ankle stability, he was adamant he was 100%. “Because mine sort of spins out of the way, it takes a lot of pressure off it”. Koepka has made the cut in seven straight tournaments and has finished inside the top ten in three of his last five tournaments.

Spieth will try next week to become the first player to win all the American-based majors in the same year. I am just trying to get as many rounds in as possible.

Jordan Spieth has just the thing to gain an edge over Phil Mickelson during their pre-PGA Championship money game: the U.S. Open trophy.
