Los Angeles (AFP) - Injured world number one Rory McIlroy fueled speculation he may return to defend his PGA Championship crown next week after posting a video of him hitting a driver online.

McIlroy has not played since suffering ankle ligament damage while playing football with friends on July 4.

He has yet to commit to playing the PGA Championship but looks to be on the road to recovery in pictures and videos posted on social media this week.
