Rory McIlroy suggests whether catching Patrick Reed in the Race to Dubai gives him extra motivation
Rory McIlroy has suggested that he is desperate to win the Race to Dubai once again this year regardless of the fact that Patrick Reed is the one player above him in the current standings. McIlroy is now able to focus his full attention on the DP World Tour for the remainder of the year after showing some positive signs during the FedEx Cup playoffs.
Rory McIlroy has expressed his desire to secure the Race to Dubai title once more this year, despite Patrick Reed topping the current standings. McIlroy, who is currently second, is eager to tie Colin Montgomerie's record of eight Order of Merit victories. The two have a history of intense competition, both on the course and in the Ryder Cup.
Reed's return to the DP World Tour has been a significant boost for the competition, while also posing a challenge to LIV Golf. McIlroy acknowledged the benefit of Reed's presence, while remaining focused on his own performance for the remainder of the year. Despite Reed's current lead, McIlroy remains motivated to win the Harry Vardon Trophy and improve his position in the standings.
