Rory: Olympics has potential to match Ryder Cup
Rory McIlroy has suggested that the Olympics could one day match the Ryder Cup in terms of prestige.
The Northern Irishman, who is a four-time major winner, said that the Olympics has the potential to be “just as big” as the Ryder Cup.
“I think the Olympics has the potential to be just as big as the Ryder Cup,” McIlroy said. “It’s a global event, it’s watched by billions of people around the world, and it’s a chance to represent your country.
“I think the Olympics is a great event and I’m proud to have represented Ireland in the past. I think it’s an amazing experience and I think it has the potential to be just as big as the Ryder Cup.”
