Grand Slam winning Rory McIlroy has posted what can only be described as an absolute shocker, nose-diving to the tail of the field in signing for second round eight-over par 78 that will see him easily miss the halfway cut in the RBC Canadian Open. McIlroy, a former RBC Canadian Open winner by seven shots in 2019, is set to miss the cut by a massive dozen shots in this 2025 event in posting two birdies but also four bogeys, one double bogey and a horror ‘8’ at the par-4 fifth hole on ...

Scotland’s Connor Syme got the shortest club in his bag working well to end near the top of the board on the opening day of the KLM Open in Amsterdam. Syme grabbed eight birdies including birdieing three holes in succession from the seventh in an impressive six-under 65 to end the opening day second on this week’s host International course in Amsterdam.

Grand Slam winning Rory McIlroy has frankly revealed he was “p***ed off” news of his TaylorMade driver failing technical standards made headlines before last month’s US PGA Championship. Just two days before the PGA Championship was due to tee-off and the World No. 2 had the offending club pulled from his bag after official testing showed it had crossed the threshold, the so-called ‘trampoline effect’ when the face of the club becomes slightly more springy. As we have ...

THE MODERATOR: Good morning. We’d like to welcome defending champion of the RBC Canadian Open Bob MacIntyre to the interview room. Bob, an emotional win last year. Can you talk through what it’s like to be back here in Canada? ROBERT MACINTYRE: Obviously last year it was special, but to come back to a place that I’ve got fond memories of — obviously a different golf course, but as a place, as a country, with the fans as well. Being left-handed, I thought the support I got ...
