After closing out his first winless season in nearly a decade, Rory McIlroy is ready to put the clubs away.

McIlroy came to the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship with hopes of building on last week's runner-up finish at the British Masters as he looked to win a tournament for the first time since the 2016 Tour Championship. Instead, he barely made the cut and never factored, closing with an even-par 72 on the Old Course at St. Andrews on the same day Ross Fisher set a new course record with a 61.
