Calling it “a great day until it wasn’t,” Rory McIlroy spoke for the first time Wednesday about his crushing final round at the U.S. Open won by Bryson DeChambeau, going into detail on the late missed putts that cost him a chance at his fifth major title.
McIlroy, who is defending his Genesis Scottish Open at the Renaissance Club near North Berwick, Scotland, this week in advance of next week’s British Open at Royal Troon, spoke with reporters following his pro-am.
