Breaking Down Rory McIlroy Off the Tee

Rory McIlroy didn’t become the No. 1 ranked player in the world and a two-time PGA Championship winner without building a well-rounded game, but what undoubtedly sets him apart is his ability with a driver off the tee box. 

This season, McIlroy leads the TOUR in shots gained tee-to-green, is fourth in shots gained off the tee, and is fifth in driving distance at 313.9 yards per drive. And while we know you won’t view the following video and automatically start striping it like Rory, there’s a good chance Greg Fitzgerald’s analysis and quick coaching will give you a little more distance next time you’re out on the course. 

The truth is, we’re all just trying to get a little bit better every time out.
