<\/p>\n<p>McIlroy is using this week&#8217;s Canadian Open as a key warm-up for the upcoming US Open.<\/p>\n<p>The Northern Irishman, who won the Canadian tournament in 2019 and 2022, has been a consistent contender at the US Open in recent years, recording six consecutive top-10 finishes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I love that it&#8217;s the week leading into the US Open,&#8221; McIlroy said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve had six top 10s in a row at the US Open, so there&#8217;s something to that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Winning the Masters in April brought McIlroy his long-awaited career Grand Slam, becoming only the sixth male golfer to achieve the feat, but he admits now he has conquered that peak, things have changed for him.<\/p>\n<p>Asked what challenge was left for him the 36-year-old said: &#8220;I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;m chasing anything.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I would certainly say that the last few weeks I&#8217;ve had a couple of weeks off and going and grinding on the range for three or four hours every day is maybe a little tougher than it used to be.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You have this event in your life that you&#8217;ve worked towards and it happens, sometimes it&#8217;s hard to find the motivation to get back on the horse and go again.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think the last two weeks have been good for me just as a reset, just to sort of figure out where I&#8217;m at in my own head, what I want to do, where I want to play.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I thought it was a good time to reset some goals.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Open getaway<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1749306618_637_GettyImages-2211396124.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Enjoy a 3-night weekend getaway with grounds admission tickets for both Saturday and Sunday of The Open 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Stay in comfort at the Hilton Templepatrick, with transfers included and exclusive access to the Your Golf Travel Clubhouse.<\/p>\n<p>All this from just \u00a31,270 per person \u2013 don\u2019t miss your chance to be part of golf\u2019s biggest event in ultimate style.<\/p>\n<p>Plan your dream golf trip <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgolftravel.com\/the-open?utm_source=talksport&amp;utm_medium=radio&amp;utm_campaign=openpackages\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"HERE (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The RBC Canadian Open takes place this week as some of the world&#8217;s best golfers continue their preparations&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":163972,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4106],"tags":[2826,68783,68784,68793,68796,68787,68790,68794,68795,68785,68791,68797,68786,68789,68792,68788,4287,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-165177","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golf","8":"tag-golf","9":"tag-rbc-canadian-open","10":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-2025","11":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-commentary","12":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-course","13":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-dates","14":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-field","15":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-how-to-follow","16":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-how-to-watch","17":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-live","18":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-pairings","19":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-prize-purse","20":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-stream","21":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-tee-times","22":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-tv-channel","23":"tag-rbc-canadian-open-uk-start-times","24":"tag-rory-mcilroy","25":"tag-sports","26":"tag-uk","27":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165177","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=165177"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165177\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/163972"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165177"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=165177"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=165177"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
