Martin Slumbers’ Curse: Was Rory McIlroy Cursed?

Padraig Harrington’s YouTube analysis casts doubt on Rory McIlroy’s supposed curse, imposed by former R&A chairman Martin Slumbers. McIlroy has failed to win a major since 2014, despite winning two under Slumbers’ leadership. Harrington, a three-time major champion, highlights the immense pressure that can influence performance.

Rory McIlroy had a lot to say about his Pinehurst collapse

Rory McIlroy’s Pinehurst collapse was a major talking point after the US Open. The Northern Irishman was in contention for the title heading into the final round but shot a disastrous 80 to finish tied for 15th.

McIlroy admitted that he was “very disappointed” with his performance and that he had “a lot of questions” about what had gone wrong, the Telegraph reported.

“I felt like I was playing well all week and I just didn’t get it done on Sunday,” McIlroy said. “I made too many mistakes and I didn’t hit the ball as well as I needed to.”

McIlroy said that he would be taking some time to reflect on his performance and try to learn from his mistakes.

“I’m going to take a few days off and then I’ll start to think about what I need to do to improve,” McIlroy said. “I know that I can play better than I did on Sunday and I’m determined to get back to my best.”

“It’s about trying to just block out as much as you can,” he explained. “If I’m watching golf on TV, I’m going to start thinking about what those guys are doing, and I’m going to start trying to compare myself to them.”

Instead, McIlroy prefers to concentrate solely on his own game plan, allowing him to stay in the present moment and avoid unnecessary distractions. This approach has proven successful, contributing to his status as one of the world’s top golfers.
