From the start, Rory McIlroy never conducted himself in a manner that reflected his age. At age 21, he was a public relations dream. No wild nights a la Tiger Woods or Anthony Kim and no comments to retract—just wholesome kid playing in a man’s world. Ironically, the most immature aspect of McIlroy is the very thing that has made him who he is—his golf game. When you’re 21, have the world by a couple of Titleist and making boat loads of cash; it’s easy to have aggressive strategy on the course. This will not be the case anymore as Reuters reports that McIlroy is taking a more mature approach to the game.
"I'm working a little bit on strategy, working a bit on the swing and basically just trying to develop into a more mature golfer.”
"So you'll see me playing away from the pins more and knowing when it's a good time to be aggressive and when it's a good time to go for the middle of the green."
Content with his station in life he may be, but Rory is looking to take his game to the next level if he wishes to be relevant in the analogs of golf history.
