Rory McIlroy was cruising, then Jack Nicklaus’ warning rang true

Augusta, Georgia – the golden bear knows something or two about Augusta National. After all, Jack Nicolas won a master’s degree Six times and made 52 beginnings during his glossy career.
So when Ruri McLeroi chose to win early Thursday morning, he was not surprising. Gary Player and Tom Watson chose to complete the Grand Slam profession, something he was trying to do for 11 years.
But Nicolas, who confessed to a recent conversation with Mcilroy on how to play a golf course, presented a warning mark around the current world No. 2.
Nickelos warned: “Discipline is what Rorre lacked, in my opinion. He got all the shots. He got all the game. It is definitely talented like anyone in the game.”
“But if you look, count and see its history in the past few years, it reaches a place often when there is eight or seven popup, and this prevents you from reaching where it needs to go.
“I am a big fan of Prades and I love Ruri a lot, and this is what I think. But I think it is clear that Scotty Chefler is back again. He is a defense champion, no one plays better in the game more than Scotti. Between the two, I think you will find your winner.”
When Mcilroy ignited another engine in the fifteenth corridor, 4 was less than the fourth and in a tie with Scheffler, which already published 4 less than 68 earlier in the day. Another bird began in 15 years, and “Rory-Scottie” shows that Curtis Strange from ESPN It seemed expected to rise to the level of bills, at least through the first round.
Then Mcilroy expelled a green air 15, which is one of the newest surfaces in the cycle. He photographed 4 iron from 238 yards, but instead of trying to play a high degree of peak, which lands more soft, he pulled a hole. His approach to the fifteenth green color exceeded and fell about 10 yards outside the surface, in a similar location to where Patrick Canlay cut it in the moments of the front pond before.
Mcilroy suffered from the same fate.
He put a chip shot, which rolled in the water, leaving Mcilroy to write “seven” strict when it should have been in the worst case.
Later, Mcilroy sent his approach again.
Once again, he released a chip shot 20 feet from the science stick and then gets three double ghosts.
In the blink of an eye, the Mcilroy moved from improving its degree to 5 to the bottom to a decrease even on an equal footing of the championship. Signed 72.
Nickelus’s warning has been achieved.
