Rory's McIlroy's IMPOSSIBLE Recovery Shots | TaylorMade Golf

Rory McIlroy's all-world golf skills have been on display for years. But in our first installment of Rough Situations,‪@trottiegolf‬ will put that talent and creativity to the test with the all-new TP5x from TaylorMade Golf. Watch as Trottie puts Rory in tough situations, and listen as one of the game's greatest talents talks you through his approach and process for pulling off the shots. Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to our channel and watch until the end to get a sneak peek at the next episode (which comes out later this month) that features a major winner.

[@jesselund360]

Fun fact: Any time a Pro especially of Rory's caliber says "It's my first time trying this" he's about to hit the purest fuckin shot you've ever seen.

[@trage9395]

So true tho 😂

[@nutmegandpeach]

Rory: 5 wood is easy to get up in the air Me, who has topped every fairway wood I've ever hit: *Observe*

[@collinmcatee9655]

😂😂😂 i felt this comment so much

[@pljt9567]

Ahhahahahahaha, never could relate more

[@adski0125]

[@charlieodom9107]

When I need to hit a stinger, I either use a fairway wood, or a lob wedge in a greenside bunker!!!! Lol

[@theaveragegamer7794]

Taylormade: “We’re making tip videos for average players out there who don’t know how to handle rough situations.” Also Taylormade: “Lmao Rory, hit a driver off the deck.” Me high af at 1:00AM: yea doin that tomorrow for sure

[@ryankuamr3831]

Pliz break a century

[@nhanle9218]

H4ahahahahaha no cap

[@CalMoul3]

NOW.

[@SanswapsLFTD]

felt this dawg

[@AMCustomCoasters]

Miraculously I hit my driver infinitely straighter off the deck than I do off the tee.

[@jonahthomas4835]

That first shot driver off the deck holy

[@albinobluesheep]

I don't think I can get my 3wood that high, lol, and then it lands...AND SPINS BACK. Just madness

[@rikinietof]

Give this man a bag full of drivers

[@ryanredversmusic]

That is outrageous 🔥

[@marsdenphoto]

The 3 wood nut is ridiculous. I’d love to see one of these videos with Tiger

[@Joynsie]

Fkin Outrageous !!

[@TheMachoMan]

Trottie: you're 280 yards out, the ball is stuck in quicksand, you'll also need to take your shoes off and swap them for high-heels, also we spiked your water earlier so you may be feeling a little dizzy...and one more thing is you can only hit a Gap Wedge. Rory: I got this, no problem.

[@nomeara2187]

“I’m feeling pretty confident I can get it up there”

[@Chyeahokay]

“We have a couple shots we can make here”

[@ThePwig]

These really are the kind of golf videos we need more of. World class golfers showing off

[@adski0125]

Yes, but less theatrics please. It would be great to see them playing outrageous shots and having real fun, but it's all too fake for me. If you're trying to make the situation real, play a real match with a lucky amateur that will really hit shots into these locations and then have Rory & Co actually play out of those situations. I can repeatedly find these impossible shots hole after hole. TM - you know where to find me

[@DWardington]

@@adski0125 that's a different video entirely, but also sounds fun!

[@ivanlin1050]

Happy Birthday Rory !!!

[@bignateliving4056]

I’m sure he’s lonely today, reading through all the old comments on KZbin videos looking for some love.

[@vikeskie]

Nathan Okrusko you seem to be..

[@koda4247]

When i saw the first one i was really hoping it wasnt just a 60 second ad, good to see you guys actually made full videos with all of them

[@adamacaster5833]

Next time on rough recoveries with Rory: Rory you got a bad break, how do you play it out of someones pool?

[@ropey1663]

lmao

[@polliflo8485]

Haha killed me

[@kieranfairhurst924]

I could watch Rory all day and I hope he comes back to win another major

[@grahamedwards7103]

The high pitched "wooo" during each full swing 😂

[@chrisstennett1592]

I thought it might be 👟

[@CleeTaurus]

I thought it was like a non voluntary grunt

[@mynameismark25]

wtf you talking about?

[@davidr8572]

It’s bc he swings so damn hard

[@T1cksandLeeches]

@@mynameismark25 the squeak he makes with his lips when he does a full effort swing. Not sure how that's a "woo", but it's just from the exhale through clinched lips.

[@jeddyhi]

7:03 notice on the 5 wood shot he stays flat footed through impact and only the momentum of his swing brings his trail foot up on it's toe. Ricky Fowler does this as well and Ricky said it gives you better, more consistent strikes with the woods.

[@KaM-fc6nu]

Rory you are THE Best! Nothing too hard for you :) Insanely good in these rough situations.

[@thomasconquest3305]

Did anyone notice the grunts he kept making in his downswing 😂

[@94jettameowpsst]

Is that the woooo sound Wtf hahaha

[@Pr3st0ne]

Bruh it's like a mouse being squeezed haha wtf

[@malcolmshepherd731]

HAHAH hilarious

[@silverpower6912]

shoes...

[@BrettGolfs]

its his shoes squeezing, have similar ones, they annoying af

[@TheTsdaman]

Dude just hit a ball out of a bush almost on the green from 250 out.... wtf

[@robbiesimpson3593]

😂😂 Rory Mcilroy some of them golf shots were insane. I could not believe the shots that he hit and I don’t think we would even think of hitting them but he pulls them of. WHAT A PLAYER

[@jonafrica5739]

WADDA PLAYA

[@yateswebb]

Taylor made has some killer content going. Good work y’all.

[@stevewherry6205]

What a LEGEND.....Happy Birthday Rors.

[@redhed9776]

I'm 65 and glad I got to see some of the best golfers on the planet... also, these comments get "Best Of the Internet"...you guys are great.

[@bobnokley]

I don’t have words for this guys skills

[@galaxy-1969]

This is Rory’s at his best (2021). Perfect swing (Doppler effect) and perfect weight, muscle mass, etc. for him. Find this again Rory ❤️⛳️

[@GabrielLevinho]

Rory is RIDICULOUSLY good... what a player... thank you guys for this video.

[@adamacaster5833]

Trottie: I need to say less The comments section: 🎉🎉🥳🥳

[@ClavMada]

I could watch these all day!

[@nejimakana]

All those spots are a normal weekend for most.

[@scratchroadgolf6956]

OMG! As much as I knew these guys were good, watching this gives me a whole new perspective on just how good they really are! Not just good, AMAZING!!!

[@Purpleeagle231]

Great work TaylorMade. TM and European Tour putting out the best golf content right now.

[@molesticles]

That bunker shot would have my back crippled for a year. Strong lad.

[@detmostwant]

TaylorMade content team is killing it with these videos. Keep it coming

[@LittleMur410]

These are awesome, but some more quick cuts of the ball landing around the green would be great! Also, that last shot was clearly a different ball than the one you chatted about first, Rory's left foot moved significantly further away from the wall lol

[@stevenstorey1]

And all the sand all over the bunker wall before he's even hit the ball.

[@LittleMur410]

@@stevenstorey1 definitely. I'm ok with it taking a couple of takes or whatever, but I want to see the continuity of the save! Who cares if he missed the insanely close one, he said it was half luck, but dont stitch together something disingenuous

[@beakerfish2009]

If I'm in a fairway bunker, 202 from the green with trees in the way, I'm laying up even if the ball landed on a tee

[@michaelalbanese3784]

I’ve got to stop watching these videos bc it makes me go “oh I can do that” ... a one day later ... ok turns out I can not do that

[@seanhoagland5084]

13:57 clever little switch up where the ball was Taylormade..not even the same position when the camera switches lol

[@thechef33]

Good catch. You can see his left foot was almost touching the grass in the first angle.

[@tylercombs5648]

I would like to just walk a nice 18 at Royal Portrush with Rory. He has so much fun and it seems like he has just a genuine love for the game.

[@archiebell6194]

0:45: talking all cool about what’s going to happen Me: hits it and see where it goes

[@marco_gallone]

I can’t help but laugh at rorys squeal at the top of his backswing. I do that all the time. It’s how I know he’s human😂

[@nicholasboule5134]

I thought it was is clothes or something, maybe shoes

[@3spressoShot]

@@nicholasboule5134 it’s thE mic rubbing on polyester when his arm gets across

[@hrcdesign]

Timely video, his recovery shot on the 18th to win at Quail Hollow yesterday was proof that Rory knows how to handle 'Rough Situations' when they matter the most.

[@nickallen817]

Rory has sorta that tiger “gotta listen” feel. He’s enjoyable too watch in these videos

[@Followthepath89]

Reminds me of the junior years giving your buds a little mini challenge flop over a tree but would end up in the clubhouse and a few weeks banned 😂😂

[@lamebeast7449]

Happy birthday Rory

[@bluedevil4120]

This was amazing. Can’t wait for the future episodes!

[@lukedfluke]

The sand all over the bunker wall just behind the ball and the improved lie after the footage cut for that last bunker shot shows just how many times he attempted that shot and failed hahaha

[@tylercady3985]

But that fact that he still pulled it off, even if it took more a few attempts, is still impressive

[@210corona]

8:10 rory was a cucumber when he called him “Tommy” lmao

[@method341]

This is great. Non cheesy and we get to see some funky shots outta dodgy lies!

[@Avalajawa]

Did Rory just say he would have to NUT a 3 wood to get it to the green from there? Lmao

[@mengkit1621]

Into the wind

[@nomeara2187]

it’s not that uncommon to say. Lol

[@JC201039]

This Rory guy is pertttty good

[@rosscowan3612]

And this is when I appreciate how terrible a golfer I am 😳 driver off deck was sensational

[@bmoneybby]

Rory one of the best ball strikers ever.

[@MinciHH]

Very interesting and helpful! Looking forward to the next videos! :-)

[@Big_Lex]

Incredible

[@Goosebump_clips]

Dont think people appreciate that 200m bunker shot with the ball below the feet. Takes so much strength

[@ouroborosoroboruo]

13:26 that sand patch on the wall of the bunker was left behind by a player in the previous group who finished in the exact same position and took twelve shots to get out

[@jackwilcox5811]

That team Taylor made bloke from England has the best job ever

[@robot3759]

8:24 I think this is the first time Trottie has actually made one of his little marketing bits work.

[@YouFoundTheWorstAlive]

Unreal talent. Is that noise him or the mic rubbing on his shirt? If that's him, he's channeling that Hulk energy. 😂😂😂

[@retardwitagun2666]

Happy Birthday Rory

[@Mac13587]

Only Tiger does these perfectly!

[@TigerSpiderTube]

Crazy good Rorey.

[@fergusmckie4336]

Great video

[@gorgeousj206]

Insanely good

[@ryangoodson8576]

Not taking anything away from Rory but the bunker shot was not first take but he still is a phenomenon.

[@cosminking8516]

12:00 what we was all thinking 😂

[@randmontermini4535]

Those lil Rory grunts 🤌🏽

[@lorenzharnacke7694]

Thats Insane skill 🤙

[@davidbae5615]

wow...makes it look easy... me just punching out from the trees... lol

[@michaelruffo7865]

That fairway looks like a putting green😂😂😂

[@benrusnak3794]

The ball outta the bush 😳

[@BENRARD10]

Solid grunts roorie

[@jhaz89]

Microphone rubbing

[@SniperShotz99]

Awesome video as always, but its not listed in the rough situations playlist!

[@rohanbanerjee2229]

do this on the tour, we want you back

[@jimdegroot8607]

This is insane

[@mcminn94]

He seems like such a nice guy

[@xavierpattersongolf5306]

Happy birthday rors! Taylormade is killing the online content right now

[@oozu-maki4488]

Look at the sand on the edge of the last bunker. I think it’s safe to say most of his shots took a few tries

[@69clarky69]

Ha! Wonder how many attempts at that bunker shot he had. In a completely different stance when the camera turns. Don’t get me wrong I would still be in there but don’t believe this is the first try!

[@jamcoombes]

What a pity we never saw any videos of NIcklaus and Palmer at their peak attempting these sort of shots. The nearest historical record of shotmaking artistry is probably Seve. Obviously Arnold was renowned for recovery shots but they were never documented in the way that these guys are - we just seem to have plaques that describe the feats. I have been watching golf for 40 years and I don't recall seeing any of that generation playing the amazing shots that Tiger, Rory, Phil etc have pulled off during their careers. Maybe it is just because their are so many more cameras now.

[@Mainytacc12]

rorys such a nice guy haha 😆

[@deanquinnell1805]

That was awesome

[@williamedwards2850]

Love this ❤️

[@benwilliams4897]

at 13:59 they changed the shot to give him more space... naughty trottie.

[@GarethSoye]

The only sensible reply to those first 2 shots Rory hit would have been a genuine Northern Ireland one of “oh just **** off Rory”. He would know that is the ultimate praise he could ever be given.

[@tommycorsello7147]

A cheeky lil bromance!

[@sprtsfanatic1]

Rory’s better than me, with a driver, off the deck, into a strong cross-wind, from 285 yds out, landing to a tight shelf, with backspin, than I am with a wedge from 100 yards 😅 Just next level

[@Kittylover4509]

Super Idol的笑容都没你的甜八月正午的阳光都没你耀眼热爱 105 ℃的你滴滴清纯的蒸馏水你不知道你有多可爱跌倒后会傻笑着再站起来你从来都不轻言失败对梦想的执着一直

[@TomosWilliams96]

How many times did they practice that bunker shot, all that sand on the fringe

[@colorstoned7977]

“This isn’t a normal cut” “Nahh” “For normal people it is.”😂😂😂

[@nv9120]

Why don’t my clubs do that? Might have to look at upgrading

[@rustycoon6986]

you can find your ball in the rough?? lol

[@BrennFilm]

So Rory "Woohs" before every shot... I like him even more!

[@clarencebeaks1315]

Rory’s McIlroy’s

[@Chyeahokay]

You watch videos like this, and it’s almost hard to believe how he doesn’t win everything. Just goes to show how good the top players really are

[@jonahharding686]

great content

[@TheCarty1986]

It’s not the clubs ... it’s the player. Would love to see Rory play Srixon clubs.

[@jguitar29]

Rory is one of those guys i could watch hit all day...

[@justjames1111]

If Rory's playing Golf, what are the rest of us doing? Those shots are just breath-taking.

[@03Memito]

And that’s why I own that 3 wood

[@tradernz2038]

9.03 air shot 😳. This guy ain’t half bad

[@shaneaskew6923]

does anyone know what course/facility they film these at? I would assume its a specialized facility considering every hole and green they play has multiple holes/flags on each green

[@jackworboys6323]

Looks like that wasn't the first take on the deep bunker. Plenty of sand up the bank

[@muhammadraplialmunawir5316]

Please, make some more video of building driver or fairway wood for team taylormade . Thank you so much
