‘Very weird feeling’: Rory McIlroy explains shot you have to see to believe

Rory McIlroy’s unusual shot at this year’s Genesis Scottish Open left him with a “very weird feeling.”

The four-time Major winner incredibly managed to pull off a remarkable feat – hitting a provisional ball out of a bush, then remarkably finding his original ball near a tree.

McIlroy opted to play the original ball, going on to bogey the hole, but couldn’t quite believe his eyes.

“You could see where my provisional ball ended up, and as we were walking down there I could see that my original ball was basically sitting next to the tree,” McIlroy explained.

“I couldn’t believe it, just to be honest. I thought there’s no way my ball ended up there.”

Rory McIlroy explains problem LIV defectors would have as Ryder Cup captains

Rory McIlroy has outlined the problem that LIV defectors would face if they were to be considered for Ryder Cup captaincy in the future.

Speaking to the media after the third round of the Scottish Open, McIlroy said that it would be “very difficult” for a LIV golfer to be accepted as captain by the European team.

“I think it would be a very difficult position for the captain to be in,” McIlroy said. “You’ve got a team of players who have given everything to get to that point, and then you’ve got a captain who has gone to a rival tour.”

“I think it would be very difficult for the players to accept that. I think it would create a lot of tension within the team. So, I don’t think it’s a feasible option.”

The decision was welcomed by Team Europe captain Luke Donald, who said he would consider LIV players for selection if they are “playing well and part of the qualification process.”

However, the decision by the R&A is likely to further fuel the ongoing feud between the LIV Golf and PGA Tour with the latter suspending several golfers who jumped to the Greg Norman-led series.

Walter Hagen’s Triumphant Techniques: A Culinary of Golfing Mastery

In the annals of golf, Walter Hagen’s virtuoso techniques stand as a culinary masterpiece. His precise “Vardon grip,” where the thumbs interlock, allowed for exceptional club control and accuracy.
