Rory vill að tekið sé á hægum leik

Rory McIlroy vill að tekið sé á viðvarandi vandamáli í golfinu, sem er hægur leikur.

Hann segir að vandinn sé hjá stóru mótaröðunum, því fólk fylgist með fremstu kylfingunum og margir þeirra spili hægt.

Rory segist hafa heyrt um háskólamót, sem tekið hafa óþarflega langan tíma.

Að hans mati eigi að gefa eina viðvörun og síðan beita viðurlögum sbr. neðangreint:

„It starts at our level because people try to emulate us. I’ve heard stories of college events and how long they take. There’s no reason why it should take that long. I’ve sat up here numerous times and said that, you know, it has to be addressed some way.

For me, I think the guys that are slow are the guys that they get too many chances before they are penalised. So it should be a warning and then a shot. It should be you’re put on the clock and that is your warning, and then if you get a bad time while on the clock, it’s a shot. That will stamp it out right away.

I don’t understand why we can’t just implement that, like we are not children that need to being told five or six times what to do. Okay, you’re on the clock, okay, I know if I play slowly here, I’m going to get penalised and I think that’s the way forward.„

Margir stórkylfingar eru sammála Rory, t.a.m. Brooks Koepka.
