McIlroy’s three targets for Big Finish in the season
The 36-year-old has previously discovered that “it is difficult to find motivation to get back to the horse and start again” from his success Grand Slam, although his disappointing finish in the last two starts helped him to transfer the focus to the rest of the 2025 campaign.
“I think he’s trying to have a little amnesia and forget about what happened six weeks ago, and then I’m just trying to find the motivation to get back outside and do as hard as I do,” McIlroy added.
“I have worked incredibly hard on my game from October last year, until April this year. It was nice to see how the fruits of my work get into the fruit and that everything happens. But at the same time you have to enjoy what you have just achieved.
“I certainly feel like I still do it and I will continue to do it, but at some point you have to understand that there is a little more golf to play this season. It’s here, Royal Portresh, Ryder Cup … These are obviously three big things I look at by the end of the year.

McIlroy’s evolution to the regular candidate US Open

He ended up with the winner at Wyndham Clark in 2023 before he agonized by Bryson Dechabbeau last June, where he scored three of the last four holes to finish one shot behind, and McIlroy completely accepted the difficult conditions that were facing the US Open annually.
“I felt like I was better than that reputation (someone who struggles on us open settings), so this is somehow guided by the ego,” Mcilroy said. “Shinnecock (2018) was really difficult because I love that golf course, and to perform the way I worked there, it really hurt me.
“I think it was the week when he clicked. It was why I was so comfortable here in Hartford (PGA Tour), but last week I had no idea what to do? So when I made a decision at that back of 2018 in 2019, I want to try to build my game around the most difficult tests in the game.
McIlroy ended up with a runner in the previous two now opens
“Then, as you have seen since 2019, the top 10 of the top 10 in this tournament, it has obviously finished second in the last two years in a row, and I definitely became a much more confident US Open Player and is more comfortable with me in that solid, fast settings.
“The American open has crossed from my least favorite Major to my favorite because of what he is asking you, and I love that challenge.”
