As expected, Tiger Woods has one of the best swings, in his opinion. McIlroy has publicly admitted he is the biggest fanboy of the GOAT. As one of his fans, the Irish golfer has studied Woods’ each move and knows how good his swings actually are. According to Swing Analysis of Golf Digest, Woods has changed his swings throughout his career. However, he has found success with every change.
The 32-year-old golfer chose Justin Thomas as one of his other picks. According to Golf Channel, Thomas’ swing resembles that of Woods in his early days.
Rory McIlroy and Adam Scott admire each other’s swings
Like Woods, Adam Scott was not a surprise pick either, considering McIlroy had actually praised his swings during the Arnold Palmer Invitational. He said, “Yeah, anyone could watch Adam Scott swing all day long. He’s got a nice rhythm.”
Meanwhile, Scott, too, thinks of McIlroy the same way. “I love watching him swing a golf club,” Scott said about Rory. “I think almost everyone in the world would say that.”
