HUNGER GAMES

Mcllroy will go down as one of the greats but he must now show same desire as Woods for Major glory

- ANDY DUNN

IN terms of natural ability and bravura shot-making, Rory McIlroy will go down as one of the greatest golfers to have played the game.

Of that, there is little doubt.

And even now, most observers - and fellow professionals - would have him down as the most gifted operator in the modern era, even though the world ranking system has Scottie Scheffler as a runaway No.1.

He is certainly the most watchable.

McIlroy also happens to be one of the most charismatic sportsmen of his generation.

Oh, and in terms of the history books, McIlroy has a place in an elite chapter, being only one of six golfers to win all four Majors the Grand Slam.
