In fairness to Rory, I think this is the case for a lot of guys.
I would be amazed if Rory has problems with work ethic or desire. I think he just feels the pressure when it gets to the final round.
It's a mental problem. He feels that he should be chasing double figures by now in terms of majors. Obviously his 1st two he won by 8 shots and every time he tees is up he feels if he plays as good as he can play, at most venues, no one will beat him.
I think there is an element of work ethic. Last year I think someone asked him what he was going to do to improve his wedge play as it was not as good as the top players. He basically said that my swing doesn't lend itself to good wedge play so nothing I can do about it. The commentator said that was ridiculous as DJ had worked extremely hard on his wedge play and is now one of the best where before he was poor and his swing doesn't lend itself to wedge play either
