The Ryder Cup hero is still chasing a first major title since 2014.
—
Rory McIlroy has been told he needs to sort out two key areas of his game if he is to break his major drought. The 35-year-old made a statement on the weekend by winning his 27th PGA Tour title at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, holding off Shane Lowry by two shots.
But it is now more than a decade since he last landed a major title, when he won his second PGA Championship.
A golden opportunity for the Ryder Cup star to break that run went begging in 2024 when he missed two short putts in the final three holes to miss out on the US Open to Bryson DeChambeau.
