Rory chases impossible dream at Open
The Herald
|June 12, 2025
GOLF Rory Mcllroy is leaving no stone unturned in his bid to overcome an “impossible” Oakmont course and prosper at the US Open.
-
Mcllroy is looking to shake off a hangover from his US Masters triumph in April, where he completed his 11-year quest for a career grand slam of winning all four majors.
That will not be easy at the unforgiving Oakmont Country Club in Pittsburgh, characterised by notoriously thick rough, especially as the 36-year-old is battling driver issues.
He missed the cut when the US Open was last played here in 2016, but has been putting in the work ahead of Thursday's first round.
He played at the course on a scouting mission last Monday, but probably wishes he had not bothered, as he shot an 81.
