AUSTIN, Texas – Sunday moved fast for Rory McIlroy. Less than an hour after dropping his semifinal match to Cameron Young, he was back on the first tee to play Scottie Scheffler in the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play consolation bout. Shortly after closing out the world No. 1, 2 and 1, the Northern Irishman’s attention turned to the next task.
“I feel really good,” McIlroy said. “I’m a lot more confident going into Augusta than I was last year and last year was my best-ever finish (runner-up). The one thing about Augusta is, you can’t go in too over-confident.
