McIlroy over slow play talk: 'Cut the field sizes' to speed it up

ATLANTA – Rory McIlroy has had enough slow play talk.

The Northern Irishman has always been one of the most outspoken players when it comes to pace of play on the PGA Tour but enough is enough.

“I saw [the European Tour] released a four-point plan, but I only read the headline. I didn't go deeper into it. I've had enough of the slow play stuff,” McIlroy said. “I had two hours of it last week at the [player advisory council] meeting, and that came to nothing.”

The European Tour plan will include increased timing of players and more proactive targeting of slower players.
