A Twinge in the Gut May Be the Difference for McIlroy at Augusta

A Twinge in the Gut May Be the Difference for McIlroy at Augusta
When Rory McIlroy tapped in on the 75th of the 51st Players Championship, many were relieved that the man from Holywood had completed the most significant win since he won the same title in 2019.

Then McIlroy was in his 20s, and it was his 15th conquest on Tour, which at the time seemed like a prelude to more big wins.

In 2019, McIlroy entered TPC Sawgrass after being stung numerous times by others who took away titles, he thought should have been his.
A 72 in the final round of The Sentry cost him, and he finished T4. Then, in San Diego at the Farmers Insurance Open, McIlroy finished T5, and then at the Genesis Open close again but finished T4.
