Rory McIlroy: Golf world number two says new ball rules will make game more skilful

Golf’s revamped ball rules will make the game more skilful again, says four-time major winner Rory McIlroy.

Distances on tee shots will reduce by around 15 yards in the elite game.

“It will bring back some skills into the pro game that have maybe been lost,” the world number two told Sky Sports.

McIlroy added: “I actually think it will make the pro game more entertaining to watch – you will see a different variety of games.”
