Rory McIlroy landed six birdies as he shot 65 in his Scottish Open second round; watch the second round of the Genesis Scottish Open and The 153rd Open at Royal Portrush the following weekend; all liv

The Green Jacket winner looks as if he's found his spark again after an impressive start to the Scottish Open.

Rory McIlroy showed the utmost respect for the sporting longevity he himself has achieved and gave examples of stars from other sports in comparison.

The PGA Tour is across the pond this week and the second round of the 2025 Genesis Scottish Open is in the books.

Rory McIlroy was back playing with a smile on his face at this week’s Scottish Open in Eastern Scotland. It comes at the perfect time for McIlroy, who has opened up about lacking motivation following his career-defining Masters victory at Augusta National earlier this year.

There very well could be one more — golf's oldest trophy on McIlroy's home soil. The 153rd edition of the British Open returns to Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland on July 17-20. There might not be a better way for McIlroy to conclude a most unforgettable season.

McIlroy has played this event twice since he became co-sanctioned in 2022, winning in 2023 and finishing T-4 last year. He closed well at the U.S. Open and carried that over into the Travelers Championship where he tied for sixth, so he's gaining some momentum as he regains his focus before next week's Open.
