Rory McIlroy believes he “could not ask for better preparation” as he looks to end his major drought at The Open at Royal Liverpool Golf Club.
The Northern Irishman secured a dramatic victory in the Scottish Open on Sunday when he birdied the final two holes to overtake Robert MacIntyre at the top of the leader board.
It was McIlroy's first victory since winning the Dubai Desert Classic at Emirates Golf Club in January, moving him up to No 2 in the world rankings and setting him up nicely for his return to Royal Liverpool, the scene of his 2014 Open triumph.
He claimed the last of four major wins at the US PGA Championship a month later but has been unable to add to that tally since.
