Sneakily watching Mcilroy on the computer.

He is making Stenson's ball striking look ordinary and thats the last thing Stenson is!

Its another Planet from us mortals but OMG it is a joy to behold. We are lucky to have him.
 
Agreed. He is extraordinary.

Though funnily enough, although he has struck the ball impressively, I think his putting has been the standout feature so far. Especially as he hasn't played for ages.
 
Some of you guys are very easily impressed. You should come to a few forum meets to see some proper distance! :D
 
Good to have the Wee Mon back! The Irish Open organisers must be beside themselves that he and Rickie Fowler are confirmed as playing next year.

I would imagine quite a few of the big names will play the Irish Open next year seeing as Rory is sponsoring it and it's being played at Royal County Down.

I hope so. Has been a bit of a struggle in recent years for the event so hopefully they can have a bit of a boost.
 
He's the only player that I watch on sky and rewind to keep looking at his swing as the power and speed he builds for a little dude is mesmerising. Funny though as he's only 6th on driving distance on the European tour I think. Could watch him all day and love when he gets interviewed as he still gives that look that he's excited and honoured to be on telly playing golf for a living, like he can't believe it. Nice chap too when I seen at wentworth in the pro am. The noise when he hits his driver echoing through the trees is just mega.

Yes. Love his honesty when he's had a bad round as well. (Not happened for a while mind you!)
 
i was too, its the only bit i saw this morning, looked like it was way past Henriks drive and he hits a long ball

He was longer than Stenson all day due to taking a driver when Stenson took a 3 wood or rescue.
I know Stenson doesn't use a driver much and his confidence in a driver must be why.
Rory just smashes his driver at every opportunity.
