Rory McIlroy Not Playing At Wentworth This Year
Written 2 years ago by Will O'Callaghan
Rory McIlroy will miss the PGA Championship golf at Wentworth later this month.
The world number three is defending his title at Quail Hollow in North Carolina this week before competing in the Players Championship and then the Irish Open.
McIlroy says he’s not keen on playing four tournaments in a row so close together following the ankle injury he suffered last year.
‘I’m playing here, next week at the Players, the Irish Open and then it’s basically week on, week off from there. Memorial, week off, US Open, week off, French Open, week off, Open, week off, PGA, week off, Olympics, week off, Fed Ex Cup, Ryder Cup.
‘There’s a little bit of travel in there as well so it’s a busy stretch coming up and you can’t play every week. You want to feel as fresh as you can for every tournament that you play so I feel it’s the best way for me to approach it.’
