Golf commentator stunned by what he witnessed from Rory McIlroy during BMW PGA Pro-Am, ‘astonishing’
Rory McIlroy will be desperate to return to form this week at the BMW PGA Championship. McIlroy has struggled since winning The Masters back in April, but he always seems to have a pep back in his step when he returns to Europe for the final few months of the season.
Golf commentator Tony Johnstone was utterly stunned by the performance of Rory McIlroy during the BMW PGA Pro-Am at Wentworth. The 37-year-old Northern Irishman, who has struggled since winning The Masters in April, managed to post an astonishing nine-under par after only ten holes. During the Pro-Am, McIlroy started the round par-par on his first two holes, and then proceeded to blow away expectations with a remarkable showing.
Johnstone, a former DP World Tour player, couldn't help but marvel at McIlroy's performance, stating that it was "astonishing to see." The six-time major champion's length off the tee and exceptional swing are currently in great form, and Johnstone believes that if McIlroy can maintain his putting prowess at the BMW PGA Championship starting on Thursday, he could find himself in a tough position against his rivals.
