McIlroy has also committed to playing the Memorial and the Travelers going forward.

McIlroy is heading into a busy time on his schedule, with the US PGA Championship late this month returning to Kiawah Island (where he won by eight strokes in 2012) and the US Open at Torrey Pines next month. He has missed three cuts in nine tournament outings so far this year and is without a win anywhere dating back to the WGC-HSBC Champions tournament in December 2019. Those words were actually uttered by McIlroy back in 2018 yet would seem apropos given his quest to regain his best form, having added Pete Cowen to his coaching ticket as part of that rebuilding process. I feel like I can play my game around here and that has served me well over the years.”

I’ve always enjoyed the golf course through the different variations of it from 2010, it’s one of those courses that sets up well for me. “It’s always nice to come back to a golf course and an event where you’d played well before and have good memories.

In fact, since 2010, McIlroy’s scoring average is an unmatched 69.5 and it would seem like the perfect location for the out-of-sorts Northern Irishman, who had dropped to 15th in the latest world rankings (his lowest in over 11 years), to rediscover some of his old fire on a course he has claimed as one of his favourite tour stops. He claimed his first PGA Tour title there in 2010 and claimed a second title in 2015 and has seven top-10s in nine appearances in the tournament. Milroy, returning to competitive play for the first time since missing the cut at the Masters last month, tees up at the Wells Fargo Championship at Quail Hollow aware that nobody has played the layout in Charlotte, North Carolina, as well as he has done. Can a return to one of his most favoured courses on the PGA Tour finally provide the spark to turn Rory McIlroy’s season around?
