Rory McIlroy: A Major Drought
Once seen as the heir apparent to Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy has not won a major championship since 2014.
What has gone wrong?
Rory McIlroy was once the most exciting golfer in the world. He won four major championships in a five-year span from 2011 to 2014, and he seemed destined to become the next Tiger Woods.
But since then, McIlroy has not won a major. He has come close, finishing runner-up in the Masters and The Open Championship in 2018, and he was tied for the lead going into the final round of the PGA Championship in 2020.
But he has not been able to close the deal. So what has gone wrong?
There are a number of possible explanations for McIlroy's major drought.
One is that he has not been playing as well as he used to.
McIlroy's driving accuracy has declined in recent years, and he has not been making as many putts.
Another possibility is that he is putting too much pressure on himself.
McIlroy is known for being a perfectionist, and he may be trying too hard to win majors.
Finally, it is also possible that McIlroy is simply unlucky.
He has had a number of close calls in majors, but he has not been able to get over the hump.
Whatever the reason, McIlroy's major drought is a disappointment.
He is one of the most talented golfers in the world, and it would be great to see him add to his major championship tally.
Hopefully, McIlroy can figure out what is holding him back and start winning majors again soon.
