There is a good possibility that the next time Rory McIlroy plays a competitive round will be in three weeks at The Masters.
Following his withdrawal from the Arnold Palmer Invitational due to a back issue, McIlroy survived four rounds at TPC Sawgrass as he settled for an even par finish.
“Happy I got through four days, and my body feels good,” McIlroy said after his Sunday 1-under 71.
“I feel like my game sort of progressively got a little bit better as the week went on, even though the scores probably didn’t reflect it over the weekend. I hit the ball well. I just didn’t make anything on the greens.
“Happy to come through four rounds and feel like my body held up well. A couple little things to work on, but overall, not the week that I wanted. Just trying to take the positives.”
When will we see Rory again? The Masters or perhaps the Houston Open two weeks prior.
