Rory McIlroy

Royal County Down GC

Quick Quotes

Q. What did you make of today's performance?

RORY McILROY: I definitely would have taken the score before I went out today. Got off to the perfect start making 3 on 1. And then it was just a matter of trying to par as many holes as possible and if you picked up a birdie here and there, it was a bonus.

Yeah, I think to shoot in the 60s today in those conditions, yeah, obviously a really good effort and that puts me in a good position going into tomorrow.

Q. What would it mean to you to get it done?

RORY McILROY: It would be amazing. I'm excited to give myself a chance. The last couple times I've played in Northern Ireland, it hasn't really panned out the way I wanted. So to play a good three days here and be in the final group and give myself a chance tomorrow.

Yeah, I'm excited for the opportunity, and I can't get too far ahead of myself, but yeah, I'm excited to go out there and give it my all tomorrow.
