Rory McIlroy endured the toughest loss of his career at the 2024 US Open, where he bogeyed three of the final four holes to miss out on a playoff by a single stroke.
The Northern Irishman's ten-year Major drought continues, and he was filmed making a quick exit out of the parking lot at Pinehurst to head straight home. McIlroy declined all media after agonisingly missing from 4ft on the 72nd hole and was gone by the time champion Bryson DeChambeau had come out of the scorer's tent.
