Rory McIlroy hoping to kick-start ‘pivotal’ season at Pebble Beach
McIlroy has committed to a reduced playing schedule – having played 27 times last season, juggling the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour – for the year ahead, with three prime targets: firstly, the Masters in April; the 153rd Open Championship at Royal Portrush; and the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black in New York in September.
