"Yeah I'm close, I'm pretty close. I feel like I controlled my ball flight well in the crosswinds this week I drove the ball really well.
I think I'll always nitpick and there's always things about my game that I want to try to get better, because that's just who I am. I'm trying to get the most out of myself all the time, but I also have to accept at the same time where my game's at right now."- Rory McIlroy said, as quoted by Sky Sports.
