The PGA TOUR is set for a thrilling week at the WM Phoenix Open as a star-studded field is the focus at the most attended event of the year. Rory McIlroy is making his first PGA TOUR start since winning THE CJ CUP in South Carolina in October. McIlroy has, however, played five times on the DP World Tour since that win, recording five top-5 finishes, including a win at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic. Eight of the world’s top-10 golfers are in the field, including world No. 2 Scottie Scheffler and world No. 3 Jon Rahm. Rahm currently leads in the FedExCup Standings and has won four of his last six starts combined on the PGA TOUR and DP World Tour. Meanwhile, Scheffler is looking to become the first golfer since Hideki Matsuyama (2016-17) to win back-to-back titles at TPC Scottsdale. Sam Ryder returns to TPC Scottsdale after making a hole-in-one on the famous 16th hole in 2022. Other names to look out for include Shane Lowry, Collin Morikawa and Patrick Cantlay, who returns after a playoff loss last season.

Hire Claire Hogle!! She is amazing! Check out her video below!! Let's get her to 100K subs!! LETS GO!!!!
Bad day at office overall however, 2 over par to end the day 😬
The GOAT. Better than any yank that’s ever picked up a club.
I wonder how many cotton Nike sweaters got sold today, cuz im about to buy one too!!!
that ladies and gentlemen, is a world number 1 player kinda shot.
Mediocre at best
Boring
Rory best golfer .. ❤❤
What a shot by Rory by the fence.
he's +2 tied for 82nd place after round 1
Horrible putt
PGA’s golden child! He played that hole like a 15 handicapper!
So the drive was ridiculous?
It looks funny with him saying click here to watch another video or subscribe and there is nothing there.
I clicked here 😂
He should have taken relief just like what he did in the Fedex Championship.
I do that too. I bet I have more experience hitting those shots way off the fairway than Rory
Very lucky he didn't go OB and had a clear swing at the ball. A pretty vanilla highlight in comparison to the greats like Phil Mickelson's recovery shots over the years that won him 3x green jackets and 57 wins all during Tiger's reign
Rory a lame
PGA force feeding us McIlroy highlights that wouldn't get in Phil's top 20
Cry baby has a lot of practicing to do to get anywhere near Phil the thrill level! This is the kid the pga is hyping? Lets see how lame duck crying Rory does against some real players at the Masters this April. Can not wait to see Phil, Dustin, and Bubba going for another green jacket! So stupid Bryson and Cam are not allowed! Or are they? What about Sergio? Liv has way better talent and way more mojo! I will be at the Liv Chicago event again this year since boring pga is too weak for Illinois!
I think Rory needs to get himself a Callaway or Ping driver and throw away that Stealth biggest certainty this week the winner will not be using a T.made driver
There is level and then there is level. Outstanding performance.
I would be too scared to bring the club back and probably end up intentionally skulling like a 4 iron or something! 😂
golf stars !!!!
And that’s the world’s #1? What a joke. POS it’s called karma.
Rory is only ranked #1 player in the world because most of the big name recent major winners are on the LIV tour now
one of the best pars you will see this year
I make these shots all the time. I’m up against the fence on rocks 50% the time off the drive
I’m the biggest Rory hater you will find but that shot is crazy.
Hey Rory you keep biching about the tour players leaving the pga for the LIV tour for the money. Why did you abandon the European tour and join the pga tour Because money you Yappie little F*ck. Here’s some advice. Keep you Fu*king mouth shut.
Hope Rory wins the upcoming Masters to give him a Grand Slam.
NOT a ridiculous or impossible shot. He has a foot of room. Stop it. Not a big deal. Playing off large tree roots is far harder.
So much ads for a short video, Edward Sweeny is mongering again, rompy Bompy mongering, but he is squirting every 5 mins
please never get the finger clicks right, it's a meme now
How come people go on and on that he’s the best in the world, when he repeatedly puts in horrible performances? Like that this was a good shot, but the round as a whole was 👎
