Agreed!  As long as he's second to Spieth at the PGA Championship.  😃

I’m happy for Rory to be back in the circle, especially winning on such a tough track. Too many folks were blaming being married, and having a kid for his recent issues. Glad to see him win.

I was hoping Mitchell could’ve held it together to finish second so he could play at Kiawah....

My buddy worked the tournament as a scorer and grabbed me two Quail Hollow hats! He hooks me up every two years or so.

I just love how transparent he is/was through all the coaching during his drought and how much he puts it on his own shoulders and that of his team.... easy to blame a course/clubs/conditions but seeing him putting in the work shows and talk about it shows why he deserves to be a fan favorite. Golf is ****ing hard haha.

I was at Quail Hollow on Sunday and bounced back and fourth between Rory and Woodland. After the birdie on 7 Rory seemed to turn it on and get in the "zone" like the early 2010's and it was a sight to see.
