Rory McIlroy, known for his exceptional golf skills, recently shared his thoughts on Wyndham Clark's victory at the US Open. In a post-round interview, McIlroy expressed both disappointment and determination, reflecting on his own performance and discussing his plans for the future.
"I didn't even need to wait for the tap-in," McIlroy said of Wyndham Clark's par putt on 18, which secured Clark's first-ever major victory. "It's just fine, fine margins at this level and at this tournament specifically, but I fought to the very end."
One shot that really stood out for McIlroy was when he missed an important putt on the 14th hole. Apart from that, he felt good about how he played and mentioned that he fought until the very end. McIlroy's determination to win major championships was evident through his resilience and refusal to give up.
It felt like a painful repeat of last year's Open Championship, where McIlroy shared the lead after 54 holes but couldn't make the putts he needed in the final round, allowing Cameron Smith to overtake him. Ironically, he also shot a 70 (2 under) that day at the Old Course, but it wasn't enough.
During his round at the Los Angeles Country Club, McIlroy didn't make many mistakes, but like at St. Andrews, he missed out on a few opportunities. For example, he missed a 16-foot birdie putt on the third hole, which became a recurring theme throughout the day. From the eighth hole to the 12th hole, McIlroy missed potential birdie putts from 7 to 18 feet. While pars didn't hurt him, they didn't help either. The narrow margins of success became increasingly significant with each hole.
"I don't think I was hitting bad putts; just hitting them just with slightly the wrong speed," McIlroy said. "Some were coming up short, some were going a little longer."
Besides the short birdie putt on the eighth hole, the other shot McIlroy said he'd like to have back happened on the par-5 14th hole. McIlroy had a sand wedge into the green and a chance to get another birdie look. Instead, he flew it short, the wind batting it down at the most inopportune time. As McIlroy looked back on it, he said he probably should have waited 15 or 20 seconds to let the gust subside. Instead, he made bogey. The margins had struck again.
By the time he made his way down the final stretch, McIlroy was going to need a miracle to win, let alone make a playoff. Long birdie putts on 16, 17, and 18 couldn't find the back of the cup, missing multiple times by a few inches. Once again, the margins didn't fall on his side. And once Clark hit the green on his approach into 18, it was all over.
"You don't want to wish bad on anyone, but you're really hoping for a three-putt," McIlroy admitted. "Wyndham was pretty much rock solid all day."
Over the past two years, McIlroy has won other tournaments, including the Tour Championship, all the while carrying the public-facing load of a fractured and uncertain golf world. This week, he tightened up his approach, doing fewer media appearances and further narrowing his focus while playing some of his best golf despite not having his best stuff. It all looked to be building up to a victory. But then again, so did things at the Old Course last year. Those margins keep getting in the way; the scars keep getting deeper.

REAL CHEATING, by CLARK, on 09MAR24 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Ball sitting in/on very deep grass, camera right on it in a closeup ....Clark places his club right at the ball location, not touching it, and pushes the club down on the deep grass ......and EVERYONE watches the ball move .......and then he does it a couple more times ......tamping the grass down .......and the ball moving each time. I'm sorry. No matter what you want to say and get into a half-hour discussion ......this is a experienced golfer. THAT'S CHEATING!!! . .......UNLESS OF COURSE IT IS OK TO MANICURE THE GRASS BEHIND THE BALL any time you want to .....or do the same in a sand trap when the ball is buried in the sand. The "officials" let this incident go without a penalty!!!! COMPLETELY WRONG OFFICIALS!!!!! .

Rory got a very favorable drop in the last round from the “plugged” ball without penalty, I thought that was a bit of a cheat. Clark had a similar situation and hit the ball where it was.

[@lylealexander4861]

The ball WAS embedded in the lip. The lip, by definition, is NOT part of the bunker. If there was an error, it was on the part of the referee, not Rory.

[@paulsigmon7263]

Got that, but I think if it weren't determined to be plugged, it was unplayable. The ball should have been removed cleaned and put back under that lip unplugged. I agree with you, Rory used the rules to keep from dropping a stroke. Rory shouldn't have been there in the first place though. It is as like hitting a water ball and being able to retrieve the ball with a free drop.

[@RG-ja34sep]

I can’t believe that Rory hasn’t won a major since August 2014. He always seems to have a really bad round during recent major championships, which has destroyed his hopes of adding more to his career. I believe that he’s been trying too hard to emulate Tiger Woods, especially regarding his physique and overall strength. The big difference between him and Tiger is that the American was probably the greatest putter of all time, as well as having the most intense mental strength in the heat of the battle. When Tiger was in the lead after the 3rd round of any of the major or bigger tournaments, it was usually a victory on the final day!
