Rory McIlroy Surprisingly Dealt Bad News Ahead of U.S. Open
Rory McIlroy Surprisingly Dealt Bad News Ahead of U.S. Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Rory McIlroy heads into the U.S. Open with his game in a less than ideal place creating plenty of buzz in the latest golf news. McIlroy is still among the favorites to win the U.S. Open but there appears to be a sizable gap between himself and Scottie Scheffler as the stars head to Oakmont Country Club. Advertisement Scheffler is a heavy favorite to win the U.S. Open at +275, per DraftKings Sportsbook. McIlroy is a distant second at +850 to win another major. Fans could see these odds drop even more after McIlroy's poor performance at the RBC Canadian Open. 'I'm going to have to do a lot of practice and a lot of work over the weekend at home and try to at least have a better idea of where my game is going into next week," McIlroy said on Friday, per NBC Sports. Rory McIlroy reacts after playing a bunker shot on the first hole during the second round of the RBC Canadian Open golf Hamilton-Imagn Images Despite entering the tournament as the favorite, McIlroy surprisingly missed the cut at the RBC Canadian Open after shooting an 9-over par in the first two rounds. Advertisement McIlroy heads home while only having a better score than four golfers while finishing in 149th place after two rounds. The news comes days after McIlroy had a candid conversation with the media as the golfer claimed that details about his driver failing equipment tests at the PGA Championship were leaked. "Yeah, and also, the driver stuff, I was a little (expletive) off because I knew that Scottie's driver had failed on Monday, but my name was the one that was leaked," McIlroy explained to reporters on Wednesday. "It was supposed to stay confidential. "Two members of the media were the ones that leaked it. And again, I didn't want to get up there and say something that I regretted either, because there's a lot of people (I'm trying to protect). I'm trying to protect Scottie." Advertisement Now, McIlroy will have just a few days to turn the page on missing the cut, a rarity for the star, as the golfer attempts to be in contention to win the U.S. Open. McIlroy is looking to win his second major of 2025 after securing his first green jacket at the Masters in April.
