Rory McIlroy Prepared To Miss 10 Cuts A Season If It Means Winning Five Times A Year.
Four-time Major winning Rory McIlroy insists he’s prepared to miss the cut in 10 of his 22 tournaments a season if it means winning five times a year.
McIlroy heads into today’s (THUR) starting Honda Classic joint favourite with fellow ’20-something year old’ Rickie Fowler.

A day after defending Honda Classic champion Padraig Harrington singled out Phil Mickelson as the best ‘hustler’ on Tour, Mickelson responded, and to much laughter, by remaking: “Certainly, my pockets carry a lot of Padraig’s money”.
Harrington had mentioned during his pre-tournament press conference yesterday (TUES) that the one aspect missing in golf nowadays is players being able to ‘hustle’.
The three-time Major winning Irishman singled out American ...
