While fans expected that McIlroy could celebrate at the last Major this year, the Northern Irish golfer admitted that it is difficult to keep up with Scheffler and his pace.

Rory McIlroy showed his true character while speaking about Scottie Scheffler 's impressive Open triumph. The American cruised to a dominant four-shot victory at Royal Portrush to lift his second major trophy of the year. It means he will have the opportunity to complete the career Grand Slam at next year's US Open.
