The Rise Of Rory Mcilroy | A Short Golf Documentary

WoW finally finished, 3 weeks of hard work from start to finish, a little longer than usual this one as Rory decided to be very successful, hope you like it, and if you could spare 1 second drop me a like, thanks a lot i appreciate the support

Well done! A Great video truly! I watched every second haha

00:49 it's insane how similar his action looks compared to adult Rory. He was born with a nearly perfect swing.

I love your editing and writing. So well done. They don’t know about you yet. But they will. You have a future in doing this and you are on your way. For Rory and so many others talent is only one part of the equation when it comes to greatness. What all of these guys, Rory, Day, Speith, DJ, etc. is show they have the talent and have the mindset and mental fortitude to climb the mountain and dominant for a time, but to maintain dominance over decades is what makes true gods of golf. I still cheer for Rory and hope he gets his green jacket.

[@mitchellblades]

Thanks a lot man ❤️

Man this was a great video! I started golfing/watching golf 10 years ago, I was never a big Rory fan at all because he was one of Tigers biggest comps at the time. These past 4 years I have been nothing but a fan of the guy. Can’t wait until he gets that green jacket.

[@BD-su6hm]

Rory needs to watch this to spark a new fire

[@andyukh1625]

Moving forward a year, Rory is so consistent in his game winning or not you can never count the guy out ! With a driver swing of beauty and razor like iron play most of the time, I honestly think he’s matured like a fine wine.

[@jakemartinez1354]

Man it’s so crazy back in 2014 everybody KNEW Rory was going to be the biggest golfer of all time bigger than Tiger break all the records and now here we are 8 years later and he hasn’t won another major it’s just so mind blowing how that can happen.

[@sirdavos9319]

Good vid man! Rory is one of my favorites, and his swing is one of the best I’ve ever seen. From a purely mechanical perspective, there is no wasted movement. Hope he can start winning again soon. Preferably the [British] Open Championship this year

[@richardb2004]

Everyone talks about his putting, that’s been one of he’s strongest parts of his game, it’s his wedge play that has never been up to scratch

[@mitchellblades]

Yep definitely, 100 yards in he’s always struggled, and I bet he practices that the most, just doesn’t fit his natural swing type

[@platinumpineapple9943]

Incredible. Now lets see him win at Southern Hills this year at the PGA champhionship

[@manifestyourlife6]

Second best swing I've ever seen next to Tiger.

[@Iplayitwompy]

That ETSU drone shot gave me chills. I had no idea he signed up to play at my school!!!

[@matthewmurphy750]

The truth is he might not win another major again.......or he could win 10. Golf is tough and extremely hard to win professional tournaments no matter who you are. Still has 10 plus years left, best of luck to him. I do think he will win the masters at some point

[@paulwilfridhunt]

Thank you

[@iKonographi]

Holy shit little Rorys finish pose at 00:50 is exactly like his current finish. Natural talent from the start

[@donaldschmidt2990]

While Rory is clearly an epic talent, the golf woods is filled with prodigies of unrealized performance. One of the greatest was the brilliant Tom Weiskopf, who recently passed away. Weiskopfs talent was otherworldly, but his personal demons curtailed his meteoric rise. John Daly ranks as perhaps the greatest waste of talent in sports history. ANY SPORT! A walking addiction, Daly still managed to win two major championships. With zero focus. Others that didn't have the same drive and mean streak of a Tiger Woods include Davis Love III and Fred Couples. Back problems halted Freddy. While lack of a killer instinct derailed DL3. Many contemporaries said he should have been top dog in his era. What it comes down to is there are a number of factors that have to fall into place to reach true legend stature. Talent, hard work and an iron focus. The greatest simply think differently than everyone else. Even their gifted peers. Their goals are different. Therefore they achieve more. Tiger Woods said from the outset that he wanted to break Jack's records. Who says that? Certainly none of the other prodigal talents I've mentioned. They don't reach as high. Therefore they achieved less.

[@jackligas9899]

i’m almost positive that at 2:18 is tony finau

I would love to see Rory play like he used to. We see flashes of this but then he becomes human again. Don't get me wrong as a) he is the nearest thing to tiger, Jack or Bobby I have seen and b) strikes me as more human/interesting person than many on the pga tour.

Yeah, would agree with you. Nike allegedly payed 20Mil a year so I would argue against the 100Mil deal from Jumereiah, cause it would have been the same for an amateur over the five years.

[@wilfy7744]

I thought he was gonna rule the roost and be huge. I accept he’s part of the elite and a great player but he has not really done what everyone thought he would do back in 2010/11. That fiasco with McDowels management was weird. It’s difficult to gauge the true impact of moving to Nike. Nowadays most people expect him to have one good round and come in the top 10. People also expect a below average round too. His trademark has become one of inconsistency. I am still a huge fan but he isn’t the player I thought he was. But if you measure success by money in the bank he’s there and he’s made it. But I thought he was the next Tiger or Jack and he obviously isn’t. That boat has sailed. But he can be in the same conversation as Seve or Faldo or Player perhaps which isn’t bad at all.
