Rory McIlroy’s frustrations at breaking point sum up year for PGA Tour star
Rory McIlroy cut a frustrated figure at the BMW Championship at the weekend as the Northern Irishman snapped his driver in his final round – and in so many ways it summed up his year on the tour.
If McIlroy furiously throwing his driver into the nearby water after hitting his tee shot wide right on the 17th on Friday wasn’t bad enough, the four-time major winner appeared to snap his driver in frustration when bending down to pick up his tee on Sunday. It came after McIlroy fired off a wayward shot at the par four with his ball coming to rest on the bank just above a creek.
McIlroy did not attempt to replace the driver. Rule 4.1a(2) states: “If a conforming club is damaged during a round or while play is stopped under Rule 5.7a, except in cases of abuse, the player may repair it or replace it with another club.”
