Rory McIlroy had a brief and forgettable run at the Open Championship, missing the cut with a 36-hole score of 11-over par.
Speaking to reporters after his second round ended, McIlroy did his best to focus on what's coming next rather than dwell on the disappointment.
"It's not as if we only play four events a year," McIlroy said. "We play like 25. So there's still a few things there's left to play for. Obviously, the majors have come and gone."
This year, in particular, was a rough one for McIlroy. He did get a win at the Wells Fargo Championship in May, his lone victory as a singles competitor on the PGA Tour so far this season.
