Rory McIlroy has three achievements to tick off his bucket list before the end of his career as he revealed his ‘main focus’ for the new season. McIlroy won four times across the PGA Tour and DP World Tour last year but endured another frustrating season when it came to the majors.
The World No.3 missed the cut at the Open at Royal Troon and suffered a heartbreaking final-round collapse at the US Open to gift the tournament to Bryson DeChambeau. Those results extended McIlroy’s winless run in the majors to over a decade, with his last triumph coming at the US PGA Championship back in 2014.
After a post-season break, the Northern Irishman returned with a T4 finish at the Dubai Desert Classic and is now set to make his PGA Tour return at this week’s Pebble Beach Pro-Am. And looking ahead to the new season, McIlroy admitted that ending his elusive major drought is his main target for the next twelve months.
‘Winning the Masters, winning an Olympic medal and another away Ryder Cup, they are my three goals for the rest of my career,’ McIlroy told BBC Sport. ‘I’ve realised that all I can control is myself. What’s right for me right now is to fully focus on myself and to get the best out of myself and get back to winning the biggest tournaments in the world.
