McIlroy: "Golf is in a good place"

Thursday, July 28 2016 by SNTV
  • Top players practiced and spoke Tuesday (26 July) ahead of the PGA Championship at Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, New Jersey.

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Danny Willett:

    "Yeah, I would have thought so. It's a long time ago. There's been two majors since, two other Major winners, obviously Henrik and Dustin and this is now the last major of the year and with a lot of guys trying to play well and have that final one, the guys who haven't had one this year. And the guys that have one, maybe obviously trying to get two under the belt for the year. I think it's settled down a bit now and you know, we are trying to get back down to work and knuckle down because we have got a very important second half of the season coming up. Yeah, like I said before, it's time to move on a little bit from what we did in April. It was fantastic and yeah, it's changed my life, but we need to get back to the kind of form that we took into that week and hopefully then move forward."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Rory McIlroy:

    "It's always been a tournament that's set up well for me. I've had some good finishes here. Obviously the wins in 2012 and 2014, but then I've had a couple of top threes, a couple of Top-10s, apart from that, as well. So it's been a good tournament for me."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Rory McIlroy:

    "Golf, it's in good place in terms of how many good players we have, and I feel like it's hard to separate yourself from the pack a little bit. But that's what we're trying to do. We're trying to separate ourselves and trying to win tournaments and trying to be the best that we can, and hopefully that, in turn, is the best in the world."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Phil Mickelson:

    "I think it's one of those things, Bob, where I'll look back over time and my disappointment will probably increase, because I think it's the first time in my career that I have played to that level of golf and not had it be enough to win a tournament. That's a disappointing thing because I would have loved to have added another Claret Jug."
