Rory McIlroy has claimed his tied-seventh finish at last week's PGA Championship has 'glossed over the cracks' in his golf game, after a tough eight weeks for the Northern Irishman.
McIlroy headed into last week's event at Oak Hill keen to return to the form that saw him once again become the world's best player at the backend of 2022. The past month or two though have proven to be a tough period for the four-time major champion.
His struggles began in March when he missed the cut at the Players Championship, before following the same fate at last month's Masters after heading to Augusta as a well-backed favourite.
