"It’s satisfying"- Rory McIlroy opens up about his victory at the 2023 Genesis Scottish Open

Rory McIlroy started the 2023 Genesis Scottish Open with a bogey on the second hole on Thursday, July 13, at the Renaissance Club. However, he quickly strengthened his grip on the game with an eagle on the second hole. He made a birdie on the fifth.

McIlroy's performance subsequently improved in the second half of the opening round, when he birdied five holes and bogeyed one, to wrap up with a score of 64.

He made five more birdies in the second round and one bogey followed by a round of four birdies and a bogey on Saturday.

However, he struggled with his game on the first nine holes in the final round, when he sank four bogeys. But fortunately, he turned the table in his favour with four birdies on the back nine.

Rory McIlroy registered a one-stroke victory over Robert MacIntyre at the 2023 Scottish Open. Speaking of his performance, the former World No.1 said to reporters:

"I don’t feel like I need to prove anything in my career but it’s satisfying to know that for me that I can still do it. It’s nice to have the validation. It’s great racking up top fives, top 10s, but it’s much nicer heading away with a trophy on Sunday afternoon. It’s a great shot of confidence."

He added:

"Hit some amazing shots down the stretch. I was able to finish it off with a really nice putt. Feels incredible. Its been a long six months since I won in Dubai... Hopefully, this win sort of breaks the seal for me going into the next week as well."

Rory McIlroy will now head to the 2023 Open Championship soon after winning the tournament on Sunday. The last major of the year will take place from July 20 to July 23 at the Royal Liverpool.
