Rory Mcllroy has played in the Masters 13 times, so together with practice rounds he must have had around 90 rounds on the Augusta course.
Therefore, imagine how much I was cringing when I heard his interview after missing the Masters cut last week. Surely, he must know the course by now like the back of his hand yet the difficulties of the holes sill come up as excuses.
For a golf coach to hear a player say that he’s still doesn’t understand his swing is hard to take, especially when you consider that the player concerned has had around 30 years of playing and practice to get it right.
Prince Philip would just say “get on with it” instead of looking so pathetic and that the end of the world must be nigh.
“I’m working on something new on my swing, I have a new coach, just moved houses, having a baby, and getting used to new clubs or wife” are excuses you’ll hear…
