Rory McIlroy is confident a post-round range session has “straightened out” his waywardness heading into the PGA Championship, echoing his Masters title defense. After a third-round 75 at Quail Hollow—the highest since June—McIlroy hit 100 balls to correct a leftward swing tendency exacerbated by left-to-right wind. ‘I started to hit it left yesterday with everything,’ he admitted, crediting range work for regaining control. This mirrors his Augusta preparation, where similar practice helped him recover a six-shot lead to win the Green Jacket.
