McIlroy seeks end to British Open drought as out-of-sorts Scheffler defends title
SOUTHPORT, United Kingdom: Rory McIlroy has his sights set on a first British Open win since 2014 as world number one Scottie Scheffler tries to get his game back on track to defend the Claret Jug at Royal Birkdale. McIlroy ended a long wait for his fifth major by winning the Masters last year to complete the grand slam of golf’s majors and backed up that victory by securing another green jacket in April.

So, I’m going to need to work a little bit over the next couple days to be ready for Thursday,” said McIlroy. “At least I know what I’m doing. It’s a matter of trying to sort of rectify it.”
