Rory McIlroy, the No. 1 golfer in the world, regrets his decision to withdraw from last week’s Honda Classic after completing just eight holes during the second round. He was in pain from an impacted wisdom tooth and his swing was “out of sorts.”
“It was a reactive decision,” McIlroy told Sports Illustrated. “What I should have done is take my drop, chip it on, try to make a five and play my hardest on the back nine, even if I shot 85. What I did was not good for the tournament, not good for the kids and the fans who were out there watching me — it was not the right thing to do.”
