My game wasn't where it should have been at all at the start of the year. I got into a couple of bad habits on my swing, and it just took me a little bit of time to get out of them.

More quotes by Rory McIlroy
I'm afraid there are no replays or second chances in amateur or professional golf, and that's the way it should be.
Rory McIlroy
Everything is firing on all cylinders for me.
Rory McIlroy
I'm happy with the success I've had, and I feel like there's been a lot that I've learned this year, and that's a great thing going into the future.
Rory McIlroy
I was detained a couple of times but that was for not handing in homework because I was playing golf or not present because I was playing golf. There was a theme evolving.
Rory McIlroy
As an international sportsman, I am very lucky to be supported by people all over the world, many of who treat me as one of their own, no matter what their nationality, or indeed mine. This is the way sport should be.
Rory McIlroy
Sport was an obvious favourite of mine, and not only golf. I was, and still am, a big rugby fan.
Rory McIlroy
In a serious sense, wanting to change something from the past doesn't work for me - change something you don't enjoy now rather than regretting it later.
Rory McIlroy
If somebody asks me whether I'd rather sink the winning putt in the Ryder Cup or win a major, it's the major every day. World championship or Ryder Cup? Win a world championship. At the end of the day you're going to be remembered for what you achieve in an individual sport.
Rory McIlroy
I believe that anybody with Mandela's capacity to endure hardship and then forgive is a born leader and example to us all.
Rory McIlroy
How can I intimidate Tiger Woods? I mean, the guy's got 75 or whatever PGA Tour wins, 14 majors. He's been the biggest thing ever in our sport. How could some little 23-year-old from Northern Ireland with a few wins come up and intimidate him.
Rory McIlroy
I always got very excited about the Masters as a kid. I could hardly wait until the Wednesday when you'd get the BBC's preview. And I'd then be glued to the screen until Sunday night.
Rory McIlroy
It's been 18 months since I won on the European Tour and to win the flagship event, I could not have asked for any more.
Rory McIlroy
I want to try to become the best golfer in the world.
Rory McIlroy
I don't really remember, but from about the age of five I told anyone who would listen that I was going to be the best golfer in the world.
Rory McIlroy
I realise that every time my face is on TV or I'm playing in a tournament, that I am a role model for a lot of people and a lot of kids do look up to me. I try to do my best in that regard and put myself across as honestly and as modestly as possible, as well.
Rory McIlroy
I'm sure there was an educational angle to the trips (I think one was to the Ulster Museum) but it was the fun and banter I had with my friends I remember the most.
Rory McIlroy
I kept telling myself this word, process. Focus on my process, don't care about the result.
Rory McIlroy
I was more worried about what other people would think rather than, you know, me. But you have got to do what is right for yourself and what you feel comfortable with.
Rory McIlroy
The next time I cry about golf it will only be with joy. It's not worth crying over golf for any other reason. After all, it's only a game.
Rory McIlroy
I started to really believe in myself, and my abilities, when I won the World Under-10 championship in Doral, Florida. I was nine and saw for the first time that I was amongst the best players in the world for my age. This was a massive confidence-builder for me.
