Rory McIlroy says he is dealing with a major concern after describing a difficult start to his PGA Tour play-off run as he “felt lost.” In comments reported by The Independent, McIlroy finished 66th at the FedEx St Jude Championship, finishing 25 shots behind tournament winner Scottie Scheffler.
The outlets cover the same episode, focusing on McIlroy’s assessment of his form and the frustration behind his performance. While The Independent provides context through the final placing and the size of the gap to the leader, the Belfast Telegraph piece mirrors the theme of McIlroy raising concerns after struggling early in the play-offs. Neither source details a specific injury or rule issue; the emphasis is on McIlroy’s own perception of being unable to find his usual rhythm during the opening stages of his campaign.
Overall, the reporting aligns on McIlroy’s self-described discomfort during the start of the post-regular-season period and on his low finish at the FedEx St Jude Championship, with attention centered on what he says is his biggest current concern.
