Rory McIlroy targeting two more majors in 2015 as he aims to be ‘best of this generation’
McIlroy on Tuesday picked up the European Tour Golfer of the Year and Players’ Player of the Year awards
Rory McIlroy is confident he can add two majors to his trophy haul this year after a successful 12 months in which he has proved himself to be the world’s best player.
At Wentworth this week to defend his PGA Championship title, McIlroy on Tuesday picked up the European Tour Golfer of the Year and Players’ Player of the Year awards.
The world number one, who has won four majors so far in his career, clinched his third tournament of 2015 on Sunday with a seven-shot win at the Wells Fargo Classic.
The 26-year-old, who claimed the WGC Match Play title two weeks ago, has been in superb form and now has six top-10 finishes in his last eight PGA Tour starts.
"There are three majors left and I feel two of those venues could suit me – St Andrews [British Open] and Whistling Straits [US PGA Championship]," he said.
"Chambers Bay at the US Open is a bit of an unknown quantity. But there are two great opportunities for major titles and a lot of other opportunities for wins."
