The anticipation for the upcoming Ryder Cup is growing more and more every day.

The golf community can’t wait for the end of September now that the members of the US and European teams have been made public.

There are several ways to be ready for the matches now that team members are certain of their positions.

Putting everything into practice is the most typical.

Some golfers even make crucial decisions to make their games stronger. However, Rory McIlroy is unique. His plans a week before the Ryder Cup are not usual. And the European Ryder Cup captain has reminded him to be rational. Let’s dive in to learn more!

The captain addresses McIlroy’s plan

McIlroy’s presence in the team is essential since he is one of the European players seeking to contribute to the team’s first Ryder Cup victory since 2018.

But his plans before the Ryder Cup are wild. McIlroy will go to Mykonos for a friend’s bachelor party just one week before the Ryder Cup.

Though this does not concern Donald, he did talk about it with McIlroy.

Seeing the Irishman’s recent performances, we are also not concerned about his stag party plans. But let’s see what Donald anticipates from a four-time major champion.

Keep moving!

High expectations from McIlroy

The reporter continued with his questions.

He asked Donald if he expected an Irishman to take the main leadership role in the Ryder Cup.

To that, Donald replied that he would like McIlroy to take the lead with his golf clubs. ”If he win, can go out there, and if he’s playing four or five matches and win three or four of those; I think lead by example and lead with his golf clubs,” said Donald.
